I believe in old days ZR was for tyre speed rating over 240kmh(149mph), it has now been superseded by W & Y, in this case Y which is for up to 300kmh(186mph). ZR now is used for high performance tyres meaning they will probably be softer compound with better grip but increased wear and shorter life.
