Pirelli Angel GT 180/55 ZR 17 (73W) TL - Rear

The Angel GT (180/55 ZR17 (73W) TL  is a benchmark premium radial rear tire designed for high-performance sport-touring, naked sports, and street motorcycles. Built to fulfill Pirelli's "Gran Turismo" design philosophy, it bridges the gap between spirited canyon handling and long-distance road stamina. This tire delivers excellent mileage longevity while preserving core braking traction and predictable turn-in performance over its entire life cycle.

This rear profile utilizes Pirelli’s multi-compound configuration to optimize performance across the footprint. The central tread band features a compound mixed with structural reinforcing elements to increase mileage resistance and prevent highway flat- spotting. The shoulder sections transition into a specialized high-silica blend that delivers maximum chemical grip at aggressive lean angles. 

Engineered with a specific multi-radius profile layout. This structure provides a wider, more uniform tire footprint when transitioning from straight lines to full lean angles. Uniform pressure distribution significantly improves wear regularity and helps prevent early performance degradation.

The tread pattern utilizes an advanced design evolved from the classic Angel ST system. The strategic placement and pitch of the grooves ensure rapid water drainage away from the center contact patch, maximizing traction, stability, and safety on cold or rain-slicked asphalt
