This is the world's first test of the new Pirelli P Zero PZ5, and honestly, I think it's rather good.
Full article and score weighting adjustment for the final results: tyrereviews.com/Tyre-Tests/Best-Performance-Summer-Tyres-For-2025.htm
Most of these tires are available in Europe and the US. The PZ5 has been released in Europe already, I believe it's coming to the US, you should message Pirelli to encourage them.
I put the brand new Pirelli P Zero PZ5 against the top performance summer tyres on the market - Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, Continental SportContact 7, Bridgestone Potenza Sport, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6, Falken Azenis FK520, and a budget Sunny option.
Can Pirelli's latest UUHP (Ultra Ultra High Performance) tyre really raise the bar in both handling AND grip? Watch the full test to find out!
Testing conducted on a Volkswagen Golf GTI MK8 across:
Wet handling and braking
Aquaplaning (straight and curved)
Dry handling and braking
Comfort and noise
Rolling resistance
