Pirelli P6000. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; High speed controllability; Upgraded durability; . OVERVIEW: The Pirelli P6000 (N3) is a high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles. This model is the fourth approved original equipment tire of select Porsche vehicles.The tire enhances the summer weather performance. The tire combines the tread design and the summer compound to boost the dry and wet weather traction. The New Wave tread design, with the waved groove placement and optimal siping placement, boosts the grip on the road surface in dry and wet conditions, while the compound helps prevent heat build-up in the heat of summer. The tread's circumferential and angled lateral grooves disperse water from the footprint, optimizing the wet weather driving safety levels.The tread design also enhances the controllability at high speeds. The optimized New Wave tread design improves the tire's surface contact during the drive. The better contact with the road enables the tire to boost the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. In other words, the steering becomes faster and more precise in its response to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure improving the tire's performing ability. The durable construction and the tread's heat-resistant performance enable the tire's high speed durability. They work together to maintain the ideal tire shape under the pressure, allowing the tire to securely perform at its greatest high speed capability.The P6000 (N3) ensures high comfort levels during the drive. The tread design features an optimized variable pitch sequence. The variable pitch pattern creates a special sound frequency that negates the soundwaves at the moment they are generated. This prevents road and tread pattern noise from being heard by the passengers while the tires are in motion. The footprint's close road contact enables the tire to absorb the shock of driving. This enables the tire to absorb the shock of driving, minimizing the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin. As the road disturbances cannot ruin the passengers' driving enjoyment, the tire guarantees a quiet and comfortable driving experience.Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
