CORRECTION on tire post #333 Above, and more info
(Deleted),
Your questions made me review my article. Thankfully it did, and I discovered a glaring mistake. The new 17" steel betls are Pirelli and not Michelin. The Michelins are on my Z06. Sorry about that!
The backs are as follows. I don't remember the fronts right now, but they are smaller.
Size 335/35ZR17
Rim 12"
Width Sect. 13.8"
Width Tread 13.3"
Load Max. 2094 lbs.
Press. 51 psi
Diam. 26.1"
The P Zero System is Pirelli's Max Performance Summer tire system offering the possibility of selecting from two different tire designs tuned to be used separately or in unison depending on the type of car, driving conditions and driving style. Designed to heighten performance in the dry and especially in the wet, P Zero System tires were originally developed for some of the world's fastest cars, such as Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Porsche. Like all summer tires, P Zero System tires are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.
The P Zero System's two different options include the P Zero Asimmetrico and P Zero Direzionale. P Zero Asimmetrico all-position or rear-axle tires feature an asymmetrical tread design to focus on transmitting torque to the road with specialized features enhancing cornering power. P Zero Direzionale front position tires feature a directional tread design to focus on hydroplaning resistance and wet surface road holding for cars fitted with wide section width front tires. Both tires' internal structure features twin steel belts reinforced with nylon cap plies on top of a rayon casing to blend responsive handling with high-speed durability.
