Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• All weather traction
• High speed performance
• Enhanced controllability
• Shorter braking distance

OVERVIEW

The Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico is a performance and high performance, depending on the speed rating of the specific tire size, all season tire manufactured for crossover and sport utility vehicles.

The model guarantees great all weather traction. The special high performance all season tire compound and the asymmetric tread design work together to ensures first-rate dry, wet and winter weather road gripping ability. The compound maintains its flexibility in colder temperatures, while the tread's Z-profile blocks boost the road gripping ability, even while driving on snow and ice. The year round driving safety is further improved with the model's excellent hydroplaning resistance. The asymmetric tread's circumferential grooves effectively disperse water and slush away from the tire's footprint and increase the safety levels.

The tire's high performance capability is ensured with its controllability as well. The tread design's continuous circumferential block profiles and the compact shoulder blocks boost the cornering ability, driving stability and the steering responsiveness. The shoulder tread blocks increase the number of biting edges that grip the road surface during cornering and maneuvering, ensuring a safer performance. The tread design's block placement stabilizes the tire against the driving pressure affecting it. At the same time, they improve the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This results in a precise handling ability. The driving security is improved with the shortened braking distance as well. The tread design's Z-profile blocks manage to shorten the braking distance significantly by creating friction between the tire and the road at the moment of braking.

The Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico's special tread pattern boosts the tread life. The center rib maintains constant road contact in all weather, which allows the tire to evenly distribute the driving pressure across the entire tread area. The asymmetric tread design equally spreads the forces of acceleration, braking and cornering out along the tire surface and guarantees an extended tread life and tire usability by preventing irregular wear formations. The model's internal structure also strengthens the tread area by stabilizing it and preventing tread flexing. The internal structure features twin steel belts reinforced with a spirally wrapped nylon overlay. This maintains the tire's optimal shape, even under the high speed driving pressure. As the tire does not deform during the drive, it is capable of performing to its highest capability.
