Michelin Pilot Sport ZP

 |
The Michelin Pilot Sport ZP (Zero
Pressure) is Michelin's Max Performance Summer self-supporting
run-flat tire developed to provide temporary continuing mobility in
the case of complete air loss due to a puncture for the drivers of
Dodge Viper SRT 10 cars. Michelin Pilot Sport ZP tires are designed
to providing exotic performance cars with progressive handling,
exceptional feedback and refined road manners in the dry while
extending their capabilities in the wet.
Vehicle Application Tire Size
Dodge Viper SRT/10 (front) 275/35R18 (87Y)
Dodge Viper SRT/10 (rear) 275/40R19 99Y
The Pilot Sport ZP's directional tread design features a continuous
circumferential center rib flanked by a "W"-shaped tread pattern.
The continuous center rib sharpens steering response and provides
communicative road feel while the swept back lateral grooves
efficiently evacuate water from under the contact patch to resist
hydroplaning and enhance wet traction, while reducing tire noise on
dry roads. On the inside, two high-tensile, lightweight steel cord
belts, and spirally wrapped nylon cord utilizing Michelin's BAZ
(Banded At Zero) Technology improves steering response and resists
distortion while enhancing ride quality and high speed durability.
Ultra-reinforced sidewalls promote powerful cornering and help
maintain the ideal shape of a running tire for better tire/wheel
uniformity. |
