The BEST Track Day Tires for 2024 P2 of 6

The Pirelli P Zero Corsa (N0) was a revelation in wet handling, delivering performance that rivaled dedicated racing wet tires. Drivers were astounded by the Corsa's ability to find grip in even the most challenging conditions, with precise steering response and a planted rear end that inspired confidence. The tire's feedback was excellent, allowing drivers to easily modulate the throttle to control oversteer. While the Corsa's turn-in may not have been quite as razor-sharp as some of its competitors in dry conditions, its overall balance and progressive behavior made it a favorite among drivers who prioritized a communicative and engaging experience.

Pirelli P Zero Corsa Owner Reviews

Review this tire

What owners say summarised from 6 reviews

Dry grip is the Pirelli P Zero Corsa's main owner strength, praised by five of six drivers against one critical account. The six reviews average 66.8%, with two positive and four neutral, so strong dry-grip comments do not translate into uniformly high overall satisfaction. Two owners criticise wet grip, particularly traction or waterlogged-road confidence, while one distinguishes acceptable wet cornering from difficulty putting power down. Two later-use accounts also criticise wear, with reports of quick shoulder wear or below-average life. Noise opinions are split, and the individual accounts of rapid grip loss or sharp reactions at the limit are too few to establish a shared behavior pattern.

Has them on a Giulia QV. Great in the dry but scary on the wet. In fact they hold on well on wet handling but you can't put the power down at all.

Very good tires in terms of steering feeling, much better grip on dry roads than standard PZero. On wet surfaces the grip is also very good but once you reach the limit the reaction are pretty fast, so you need to react fast. Also very capable tire for an occasional trackday. I would place this tire between a Uhp and a semi-slick. A little bit noisy but less than a Bridgestone Potenza Sport.

Got 9000mls out of rear on Guilia QF. Fantastic dry grip and v predictable. Scary in wet on water logged roads.

Just when I thought I saw it all..... They cost me a good fortune, but unfortunately, all hype and no action. Pirelli should be ashamed to even attempt to sell this tire for high horsepower applications. Even after extensive tire warm up and correct tire pressure (tried lower as well), this tire is dreadful in warm temp dry weather.. All total bs that this tire is a semi slick tire. I do not recommend for the street and especially not the track. Grip drops off very quickly and if you drive a high horsepower (e.g., over 600 hp) car, don't expect any grip of the line. Its a very hard dry compound. The contrary to what I was seeking. Cup 2s provide triple the traction these do. Stick to cup 2! So disappointed after purchasing these corsa tires.

It's a grippy and quiet tires but quick wear on both sides of the tires. Compared to Michelin Super Sport, Michelin seems to have more balance rubber in terms of overall performance and wear rate.
