The primary target audience for the summer tire Dunlop SP Sport MAXX A1 is owners of powerful sedans and wagons, including premium brands. It is their requirements for tire products, as well as the characteristics of passenger cars in this category, that were taken into account when developing this model. It stands out for its combination of sporty handling and high comfort level, including softness on the go and low noise level. This was achieved thanks to the use of a whole range of cutting-edge technologies that not only improve certain operational properties but also enhance and complement each other's action.
"Multi-radius" tread profile
One such technological solution is the "multi-radius" tread profile. With its help, it was possible not only to additionally increase the size of the contact patch but also to ensure the stability of its geometric parameters under continuous exposure to differently directed acceleration forces on the tire. As a result, several of its operational properties are improved at once. First and foremost, this is the directional stability, stability of traction properties at high speed and during maneuvering, as well as resistance to uneven wear. The design of the tread pattern, which includes five wide longitudinal ribs of a continuous structure, complements some of these properties.
Robust carcass
In addition to the "multi-radius" tread, the stable and reliable behavior of the tire in any conditions is ensured by a carcass that has remarkable resistance to dynamic deformation. This ability is provided by the use of seamless winding technologies during its manufacture. The absence of seams and joints not only gave the carcass increased stiffness but also reduced its heating during high-speed driving.
Main features of the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX A1 tire
- "Multi-radius" tread profile improves handling and traction properties;
- five continuous longitudinal ribs provide excellent stability and handling at high speed;
- a robust and dynamically deformation-resistant carcass increases stability and reliability of traction properties, reduces the tire's heat level;
- low noise level due to the multi-step arrangement of tread blocks, as well as the closed design of the shoulder areas.
