Pirelli’s P6000 passenger tyre has taken the honours in the 195/60R15 (small / medium car) section of the 2008 Wheels Magazine Tyre Test.

Scoring 99.01 out of a possible 100, the high-performance Pirelli P6000 firmly established its credentials as one of Australia’s best performing – and best value – performance tyres.

"Pirelli is very pleased with these results," Pirelli Tyres Australia Managing Director Roberto Righi said. “The P6000 already has over 200 original equipment approvals from leading car manufacturers, so this is another nod to Pirelli that we on top of our game“.

“The Wheels test put us up against our key competitors in a tightly controlled objective environment, so coming out on top is a fantastic accolade for the P6000 to be credited with,” he added.

The comprehensive P6000 size range covers most cars in the medium to high performance segment, meeting the needs of the latest generation cars for comfort, reduced noise and reduced fuel consumption making it ideal for Australian roads, whether in wet or dry conditions.
