Pirelli's PZero Rosso - Corvette Tires

Italians have always identified the color red with passion, and while red Ferraris are probably one of the best known examples when it comes to fulfilling a passion for driving, today there's the example of Pirelli's PZero Rosso (Rosso, ro' so, Italian for red). The PZero Rosso tires were developed to provide high performance, high speed and a high degree of comfort. The PZero Rosso tires are the newest members of Pirelli's PZero Collection, a name now used to identify Pirelli's family of "zero limits" car and light truck performance tires. The PZero Rosso tread patterns are new and elegant. The Asimmetrico tread pattern retains the "Zero concept" of earlier PZero tires by combining a semi-slick center rib (which enhances driving precision while accelerating and braking) with robust outer shoulder and intermediate tread blocks which are connected by circumferential "multi-ring" ribs (to enhance dry grip) and independent blocks of the inner intermediate rib and shoulder which are separated by wide grooves (to help eject water). Considerable use has been made of curved grooves, which help complement the circumferential grooves to reduce noise and resist hydroplaning.
