Features and Benefits

The Italian word "cintura," which means "metal belt," is where the name Pirelli Cinturato P7 originates. This is a reference to the metal belt that Pirelli tires have had since the company's founding in the 1950s. The Cinturato P7 tire from Pirelli is the company's first "Green Performance" tire and is designed to fully utilize the most modern materials, structures, and tread pattern design to ensure cost-effectiveness, environmental sensitivity, and comfort on all types of road surfaces.

Added to it, this tire is also available in a run flat edition and run-flat tires signify better driving. When driving in an emergency, they give you more control over the vehicle and let you keep going. The Pirelli Cinturato P7 is a good all-purpose tire that did well in tests conducted on the track in both dry and wet conditions. Overall, even when driven at high speeds, the tires have good traction, braking, and acceleration performance.

Furthermore, the Pirelli Cinturato P7’s tread compound, which is fairly soft, offers good traction. The Pirelli Noise Canceling System (PNCS) uses a sound-absorbing device that is attached to the inside circumferential wall of the tire to reduce noise inside the car by half. A new tire construction technique called Seal Inside prevents air pressure loss even after a tire punctures by an outside object, and it might help to cover potential accidental causes of pressure loss.

Drivers desire a tire that is long-lasting and provides a comfortable ride whether they are operating an Audi, BMW, or another performance vehicle. This tire has a cutting-edge rubber material that offers both drivers and passengers a comfortable ride. The Cinturato P7's compact central block and optimized tread pattern enable the tire to maintain its shape during quick turns while minimizing uneven wear. In addition,four wide grooves in the tread remove water to improve control during hydroplaning situations.
