Pirelli is developing a unique set of tires for the Infiniti Q50 Project Black S.

J.D. Power has released the results of its 2017 Original Equipment Tire Customer Satisfaction Study.

As the only part of your car that touches the road, tires are extremely important.

Porsche has teamed up with Pirelli to create tires specifically for its classic models.

How much is the Pirelli brand worth? Reportedly $7.7 billion.

Good press for Chinese manufacturing is hard to come by these days. American consumers have faced numerous issues with products imported from the country. Lead-laced toys, melamine-tainted toothpaste and pet-food recalls are a few incidents that come to mind. But what about tires? Should you trust your life to bargain rubber?

Michelin came out on top in three of four categories in J.D. Power’s 2013 U.S. Original Equipment Tire Customer Satisfaction Study.

Arguably one of the most prestigious yearly calendars anywhere, Pirelli has just released the 2013 edition of its calendar, featuring photos of models in Brazil. 

Can tires be sexy? Hell, yeah – and Pirelli proves it with the PZERO line of sexy shoes.

This weekend, the Pirelli World Challenge will throw a doubleheader event at St. Peterburg and WC Vision announced that Rounds One and Two will be streamed live online.

Tires can make a huge difference in your car’s handling and safety. Additionally, with the right rubber, you can enjoy a more comfortable driving experience and even save money.

Tire manufacturer Pirelli has teamed up with Burton for some unique snowboarding gear that was recently unveiled at the International Snow Sports Tradeshow. The collaboration resulted in the 2013 Burton Ion snowboard boot and an exclusive snowboard and binding.

Pirelli wanted to do something special for its newest flagship store in Milan, Italy. So the tire manufacturer commissioned renowned tattoo artist Scott Campbell to work his artistic magic to create a cool tattooed tire.

Instead of using a needle and ink, Campbell used a gouge to engrave an eye, a heart and a skull into the tread of a Diablo Rosso II tire. The tire was then mounted on a special-edition Ducati Diavel at the new store. This design is also adorned on the inside of a special edition Dainese jacket, along with  St. Christopher, the patron saint of motorcyclists.

This marks the first time Campbell has worked with rubber as a canvas, and he said it was a challenge he was up for. After putting in a considerable amount of research into the project, he was able to transfer his tattoo talent to a new medium.
