Reseñas del Pirelli P Zero PZ5 - Página 2

Purchased these tyres off the back of Jonathan's YouTube review. Replaced a set of Pilot Sport 4S star marked tyres.

Despite the overwhelmingly good review, I was still a little skeptical about getting some Pirelli tyres. I'm glad I pushed through my prejudice and got them.

My god do they stick you to the road. Same corners, same speed with the PS4S the car would step out on me, even with traction control fully on. With the PZ5, not a hint of oversteer unless you turn off traction control and try to put down more power.

I haven't had much chance to try performance in the wet due to the dry weather we've been having in the UK, but I have no doubt it is excellent given Jonathan's review.

Steering responsiveness is a noticeable improvement from the Michelin's and they just overall feel a lot more predictable and has given me complete confidence in the car.

Only downside I have experienced is that fuel economy is about 5% worse on a long run, but that's a non-issue considering the performance. Update April 2026: After 12,000 miles of commuting and the occasional spirited drives, the fronts are down to 4.5mm and the rears are at 2.7mm. I plan to replace the rears before they hit 2mm so I predict they'll last a total of 14-15k miles in total.

I’ve always bought Michelin Pilot Sport 4S (PS4S), on a track-spec BMW 335i and then on my Audi S4 Avant. I tried Continental SportContact7 (SC7), I was blown away by the difference vs PS4S; but only I got 6k miles out of them - the rear treads on 275/30ZR19 cracked and were at 3mm of tread, my front toe settings/suspension setup also caused inner tyre balding. So I used PS4S on the S4, I managed 18k miles out of them but always felt they lacked feedback, ultimate grip and progressiveness. The PZ5 came out and after watching the review, I decided to try them. The S4 is stage 1 tuned at 450BHP//550NM with a tastefully modified adaptive suspension (springs, bushings, roll bars and drivetrain inserts) - to test these tyres, this review is based on a trip to North Wales and now recently back from the Swiss/Italian Alps, German Autobahns (including a top speed run) and finally the Nurburgring. The car was given hell in a variety of road conditions, albeit mostly hot, dry and twisty - though I was very impressed even in the cold, wet and very wet - they were still very sticky and better than PS4S without question, leagues ahead even (realistically not a even the real competition). Now... these are better than SC7, they’re more progressive and the front and rear axles in my Sport Diff’ed Quattro really felt in synch, it was far more difficult to get the back to step out vs PS4S. These Pirellis overall offer more steering feedback, feel more responsive and also more agile when making inputs at any speed. They're slightly stickier but definitely more comfortable vs SC7. And, after a lap of the Nordschleife they were fine - the SC7 let go earlier for sure (tested in the Scottish Highlands & even more local spirited driving - at least 3000 miles of driving them at ten tenths to prove them). After 2756 miles, the fronts are at 5.9mm and rears at 6mm - giving them a projected range of at least 11000 miles with this manner of driving and assumed higher rolling resistance due to higher temperatures abroad. I’d estimate greater longevity in the UK being daily driven with occasional spirited driving. Highly recommend this tyre, definitely my go-to, Pirelli have gotten their act together and taken down the SC7 (I didn’t think this was possible) whilst also doubling the range? Just a final thing to note - the PZ5 got better after a few hundred miles, they lost the softness and gained a sharpness when it came to the steering, I also felt they required less heat to feel like you were on rails. I am also directly comparing these most recently to PS4S which were worn down to 2mm which, at that tread depth, felt so much sharper vs when they were new.

Primeras impresiones sobre el PZ5 en comparación con el SportContact 7 que había instalado anteriormente en tamaño 235/35R19.

La PZ5 se asienta mucho más cuadrada sobre una rueda de 8,5 pulgadas de este tamaño. La SportContact 7 anterior tenía un aspecto ligeramente alargado, mientras que la PZ5 parece ajustarse con mayor comodidad a una llanta más ancha.

El PZ5 es mucho más cómodo en pequeños baches e irregularidades del camino y más silencioso que el SC7. Hay un ligero "aullido" alrededor de los 80-90 km/h en el PZ5 que no noté en el SC7, pero también era significativamente más ruidoso en general.

La sensación de dirección del PZ5 me parece mucho peor al inicio. El SC7 se sentía súper brusco, casi como un kart, mientras que con el PZ5 parece necesario cargar mucho más el neumático para obtener la misma reacción. Esta sensación se intensifica a velocidades de autopista de 120-140 km/h, donde el PZ5 se siente mucho más inestable en cambios bruscos de dirección que el SC7. Una vez que el PZ5 se inclina lateralmente tras la peor reacción inicial en curvas, el agarre se mantiene igual.

Conclusiones: Si buscas un neumático que ofrezca la mejor sensación sin sacrificar comodidad ni ruido, elige el SportContact7. Si buscas un neumático más cómodo y silencioso, y estás dispuesto a sacrificar la sensación inicial de la dirección, elige el PZ5.

Esta es probablemente la primera reseña que se publica, ya que estos neumáticos son nuevos y acaban de salir al mercado europeo. Compré los PZ5 sin tener ni idea, así que quería compartir algunas opiniones preliminares.

En seco, ofrecen un agarre excelente. Su tacto general es muy deportivo y firme. Su buena rigidez hace que girar en carreteras sinuosas sea realmente divertido. Se sienten seguros y estables: no hay tendencia significativa al sobreviraje ni al subviraje, y la previsibilidad es buena. Me gusta el equilibrio. Al límite, en el límite del subviraje, se adaptan bien y ajustan la trayectoria. En baches y superficies irregulares, los PZ5 se sienten sólidos e impecablemente cómodos.

Me gusta mucho más su tacto, capacidad de respuesta, comodidad, deportividad y estabilidad que los neumáticos Michelin Pilot Sport 4 que tenía antes. La tracción de arranque que proporcionan los Pirelli también es mucho mejor que la de los Michelin. Esto es muy importante en un coche de tracción delantera de 204 CV.

Aún no puedo decir nada sobre el desgaste o el rendimiento en mojado, ya que hemos tenido una primavera temprana muy soleada y seca este año y hasta ahora no he cubierto suficiente distancia con estos neumáticos.
