Bush Tyres Horncastle – McLaren MP4-12C – Car of the Month
Article written by Bush Tyres
Two milestones of development were in at Bush Tyres – Pirelli P Zero MC1 tyres & a McLaren Automotive MP4-12C
Bush Tyres Horncastle fitted a pair of 305/30ZR20 Pirelli P Zero MC1 O.E. tyres to a McLaren MP4-12C
The Tyre:
A milestone in the development of the Pirelli range, PZERO™ has been chosen as original equipment for the most performanceoriented and powerful models on the market.
Its asymmetric tread pattern improves brakingperformance and enhances handling and control.
Excellent inwet conditions with improved safety in potential aquaplaning situations.
Its new nano-composite compound ensures maximum grip and stability.
Thestructural integrity of the tyre improves steering response, which is essentialin sports driving, and also ensures uniform tread wear.
The special"s-shaped" grooves in the tread area deliver lower cabin noiselevels, enhancing driver comfort.
The P Zero MC1 version has been developed in associationwith McLaren Automotive.

The Car:
The McLaren MP4-12C is a Twin Turbo V8, developing over 600BHP and has a Carbon Monocell chassis that is similar to an F1 Car,
It also makes use of other Formula 1 sourced technologies such as "brake steer", where by the rear wheel, on the inside of the corner, is braked during fast cornering to reduce understeer. The Mclarens 0-60mph time comes up in 2.9 seconds prooving that this car demands the best tyre like the Pirelli P Zero.
This particular McLaren MP4-12C was in at our Horncastle Centre for a pair of 305/30ZR20 Pirelli P Zero MC1 fitment rear tyres. They were fitted with care overthe cars Carbon Ceramic Brake Discs and the wheels were balanced using Black Adhesive Trax Wheel Weights.
Although our Horncastle Centre is not one of our acredited Pirelli Performance Centres the same high level care & attension is employed when fitting tyres to any vehicle that visits our centres.
Since November 2014 TPMS or Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems have been helping motorists stay safe on the roads
In all of our Bush Tyres depots we offer free winter car health checks including tyre specific checks. Following the inspection we will let you know what we feel is your best course of action, whether you need a tyre replacing immediately or whether you have a few thousand miles left. At the end of the day all we will do is advise, it’s up to you then to decide what to do.
Even Supercars get punctures! This Mclaren 650S recently visited Endyke Tyres in Hull for a repair after a nail tried to ruin the owner’s day.
