225/55R17 Pirelli Cinturato P7 RFT – Performance Run-Flat
Run flat design keeps you moving after a pressure loss — requires a compatible vehicle and a working TPMS.
What these tire specs mean
- Load index 97 means each tire can carry up to 730 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
- Speed rating Y is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 300 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
- Run flat tires are reinforced to support the car’s weight after losing pressure, so you can drive a limited distance to get help. They only work on vehicles designed for run flats — compatible suspension and a working TPMS — so they’re not a drop-in replacement on most cars.
