About This Tire

The Pirelli P Zero Run Flat (PZ4) 275/40R20 is a max performance summer tire, designed for sports car, sport coupe, and high-performance luxury sedan drivers who prioritize extended mobility and exceptional dry performance in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and high silica content summer compound focus on lateral handling, comfort, low rolling resistance, and reduced noise levels.

Developed from Pirelli's Formula 1 experience, this tire features run-flat technology that provides temporary extended mobility after complete air pressure loss, making it original equipment on vehicles like the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The specialized summer-only rubber compound is engineered specifically for temperatures above 45Β°F and should not be used in near-freezing conditions, snow, or ice.
