The primary "target audience" for the summer tire Dunlop SP Sport 10 are owners of inexpensive passenger cars who value good handling and safety in any road conditions, no less than a high level of comfort. It is these features that distinguish this model, as well as the entire Sport line from Dunlop in general.
Optimized S-shaped tread pattern
The universal properties of this model are largely due to the S-shaped design of its tread. Since this tire is offered by the manufacturer in sizes for wheels with a small mounting diameter, it contains only four longitudinal ribs. However, each of these tread elements, due to its design features, has a certain functionality, improving certain operational properties. Many of them are common, which ultimately provides the tire with high performance in any road conditions.
Multifunctional tread ribs in the center
One of the distinctive features of the design of this tread is the composite structure of the two central ribs. They contain a multitude of quadrangular blocks connected by rigid bridges. This design, on the one hand, further increases the longitudinal traction and coupling characteristics, and on the other hand, the directional stability, handling, and fuel efficiency.
Main features of the Dunlop SP Sport 10 tire
- the increased number of gripping edges due to the numerous lamellas improves traction on wet roads;
- two central tread ribs made of blocks connected by bridges, in addition to directional stability and handling, improve longitudinal traction and coupling characteristics, reduce fuel consumption and noise level;
- rigid shoulder blocks improve the tire's stability during maneuvering, provide higher performance during braking, and increase the service life of the tread due to improved resistance to uneven wear.
