Pirelli P4000 review
The Pirelli P4000 is highly regarded by owners of classic luxury vehicles for its ability to maintain original handling characteristics and ride comfort. It serves as a vital solution for enthusiasts requiring specific high-speed ratings for vintage performance sedans where modern tire alternatives are often limited to truck or utility specifications.
Two scoring systems, side by side
Owner scores come from reviews on retailer and review sites; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.
