The Dunlop SP Winter Sport 500 winter tire is designed for use in regions where the cold season is accompanied by a persistent snow cover. The "friction" tire is most effective on snowy and wet roads, standing out in such conditions for its reliability of handling, stability in turns, braking intensity, as well as a quiet and soft ride.
The tread pattern is distinguished by a variable density of elements. In the central part, the blocks are located at a minimum distance from each other, which ensures the formation of a virtually continuous longitudinal rib. This significantly reduces rolling resistance, slows down wear, and has a positive effect on handling. Narrow elongated transverse edges of the blocks provide high traction on snow, and expanding grooves towards the edges - intense removal of water and its heavy mixture with snow from the contact patch.
Key features of Dunlop SP Winter Sport 500
- dense block arrangement in the central part improves handling at high speeds, reduces rolling resistance and wear;
- elongated transverse edges of blocks increase traction on snow;
- bidirectional lamellas with wavy edges provide reliability of handling on wet pavement and ice.
