About Pirelli 265 \40 R21 101Y  ZERO 2024

Tyre Size and Fitment

The 265/40 R21 specification features a 265 mm section width, a 40-series aspect ratio and a 21-inch rim diameter. This configuration is designed for performance-oriented vehicles requiring precise road contact and responsive handling characteristics.

Load and Speed Rating

The 101 load index corresponds to a maximum load capacity of 825 kg per tyre, while the Y speed rating permits speeds of up to 300 km/h under the applicable operating conditions. This combination is designed for high-performance vehicles requiring substantial load capacity and high-speed capability.

Wet-Road Performance

The P ZERO features three wide longitudinal grooves designed to efficiently displace water from the contact area and help reduce aquaplaning risk. The official Pirelli specification for this 265/40 R21 101Y N0 version carries an EU wet-grip rating of A.

Dry and Wet Grip

The asymmetric tread pattern and three continuous central ribs are designed to maintain tread stiffness for effective braking and traction, including at high speeds. The tread architecture also supports precise steering response and stable handling during sporty driving.

Summer Performance

The P ZERO 265/40 R21 101Y N0 is a summer ultra-high-performance tyre intended for road use in warm-weather conditions. It is not designed for severe ice and snow conditions and does not carry the 3PMSF winter marking.

Comfort and Noise

Pirelli's S-shaped tread design is engineered to optimise pressure distribution across the contact patch while helping reduce cabin noise. The official specification lists external rolling noise at 71 dB with noise class A.

Porsche N0 Homologation

The N0 marking identifies Porsche original-equipment homologation. This specification is therefore a Porsche-approved version of the P ZERO, and vehicle compatibility should be confirmed against the manufacturer's recommended tyre specification.

Production Year

This product listing is specified as a 2024 production-year tyre. The actual manufacturing date should be verified from the DOT/date code on the tyre sidewall.

Who Should Consider This Tyre?

The Pirelli P ZERO 265/40 R21 101Y N0 is suited to drivers looking for a high-performance summer tyre with Porsche N0 homologation, 300 km/h speed capability, strong wet-road grip and responsive handling for performance-oriented driving.
