The Pirelli Pzero Trofeo is a summer tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 51 sizes (83 registrations including load and speed variants), for 15″ to 22″ rims.

Wet grip is rated A–C depending on size, fuel efficiency C–D and external rolling noise 66–75 dB.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 325/35 ZR22 (Wet grip A · Fuel efficiency C · 73 dB), the weakest 255/35 ZR19 (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 73 dB).

Strongest point: wet grip. Weakest point: fuel efficiency, where most same-size rivals do as well or better.

What the label means on the road (225/45ZR17)

Example: the 225/45ZR17 size, compared with the 532 other summer tyres registered in this size.

Wet braking from 80 km/h

≈37 m with wet grip class B, the most common class in this size.

Fuel efficiency

Class D vs the typical C: ≈0.18 L/100 km more, about 28 litres more over 15,000 km for a 1,500 kg car.

Rolling noise

70 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size (1 dB quieter).

Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.

All 51 sizes

The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
