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.
