Pirelli has announced a voluntary recall of some P Zero Race TLR tyres to ensure the maximum safety of its clients,
The brand says this only impacts 28-622 products which were manufactured between the tenth week of 2023 (W/C March 6) and the 24th week of 2023 (W/C June 12).
Pirelli’s recall refers to certain problems of compatibility of the tyre with some wheel rims.
A spokesperson for the brand said: “Pirelli immediately launched the recall campaign, interrupting the sale of the products concerned, also those already present in the commercial network, and is defining with the relevant bodies the methods of recall for those that have already been distributed.”
The tyres involved in the recall are the following:

The Pirelli P Zero TLR is the Italian brand’s premium performance tubeless road tyre, launched in 2021 and receiving an update earlier this year.
It features two of Pirelli’s proprietary technologies with a SmartEvo compound and Speedcore to add strength and support to the tyre casing.
The tyre also has a 120tpi nylon casing for added puncture protection.
