Pirelli 275/35 R22 104Y P Zero PZ4 * 2 2024

The Pirelli P Zero (PZ4) 275/35 R22 104Y XL II* is a premium ultra-high-performance summer tyre developed for high-end cars and SUVs, with BMW II* original equipment homologation. Its wide 275 mm footprint, 35-series profile and 22-inch construction are designed to provide precise steering response, strong road contact and stable handling at high speeds. The XL construction supports the higher load requirements associated with large premium vehicles.

Performance and Handling

The P Zero (PZ4) is engineered around Pirelli's ultra-high-performance approach, combining motorsport-derived development with manufacturer-specific tuning. The 275/35 R22 configuration provides a broad contact area that supports steering precision, cornering stability and directional control. With a 104Y rating, the tyre is approved for speeds of up to 300 km/h under the applicable operating conditions.

Dry and Wet Road Behaviour

This summer tyre is designed to maintain a balance between dry-road performance and wet-weather control. Pirelli uses a customised tread design and compound approach for the PZ4, with high-silica content supporting wet-road safety while the outer tread design focuses on handling and stability. The specific BMW II* version carries a wet-grip classification of A according to the Pirelli catalogue.

BMW II* Homologation

The II* marking identifies this specification as a BMW-homologated P Zero PZ4. This manufacturer-specific marking is important because different PZ4 versions can use different constructions, compounds and tuning even when the basic tyre dimensions are identical. Drivers replacing an original BMW tyre should therefore match the required homologation marking and specification.

Construction and Comfort

The PZ4 uses customised inner and outer tread designs to balance performance with everyday road refinement. Pirelli describes the inner tread as supporting wet safety, traction and riding comfort, while the outer tread is designed to reduce noise and rolling resistance through its pitch sequence and siping arrangement. This makes the tyre suitable for premium vehicles where performance and refinement are both relevant.

Load Capacity and High-Speed Stability

The 104 load index corresponds to a maximum load of 900 kg per tyre, while the XL construction provides the reinforced load capability required by the specification. Combined with the Y speed rating and 22-inch wheel size, this configuration is intended for vehicles requiring a high-capacity performance tyre for stable motorway and high-speed driving.

Who Should Choose This Tyre?

This Pirelli specification is suited to drivers whose vehicle requires a 275/35 R22 summer tyre with BMW II* homologation, XL construction and a 104Y load and speed rating. It is appropriate for premium cars and SUVs where responsive handling, wet-road control and high-speed stability are important. The exact vehicle-approved specification should always be checked before installation. Dwbtyres provides this specification for customers looking to buy car tyres in UAE.
