Pirelli commercial tyres
An Italian premium name whose commercial tyres are now designed and built by Prometeon under licence. Stocked for trade supply across truck, bus, agricultural and off-the-road.
Who Pirelli are
Pirelli was founded in Milan in 1872 by Giovanni Battista Pirelli and spent most of the twentieth century as a full-line manufacturer, with a serious presence in truck, agricultural and off-the-road tyres as well as cars.
That changed in 2017. Pirelli’s industrial tyre business — truck, bus, agricultural and OTR — was separated out and became Prometeon Tyre Group. Pirelli & C. itself is now a consumer premium car and motorcycle tyre company and does not make commercial tyres at all. Every Pirelli-branded truck, agricultural or earthmover tyre sold today is designed and manufactured by Prometeon under a brand licence, in plants in Turkey, Egypt, Brazil and Italy.
Pirelli-branded commercial tyres have their own product ranges and specifications, distinct from the passenger car range. Choose the commercial pattern that matches the vehicle and application.

Choosing Pirelli for your operation
Pirelli commercial tyres are a premium option. Compare the available pattern, specification and price with the demands of your operation.
Consider the relevant regional, mixed-service and long-haul patterns according to load, road conditions and expected mileage. For fleets that retread, casing management is also part of the selection.
For motorway trunking, compare the fuel-efficiency rating of the specific pattern and size. Our team can help you select a suitable Pirelli or Prometeon commercial tyre.
