Tyre reviews Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3 1612

Good +/- price-quality ratio (we take and test the best for our parks: Good, Mich, Pirelli, Conti, Yoko, Nokian, Bridg). It would be better if they braked on wet surfaces, were more aggressive in turns, and didn't lose stability in puddles... But on snow, they're great. The edges are polished from the factory: weak side lugs don't allow for activity on ice/skating rinks/grooves. They handle snowbanks normally (all our cars are 4WD). NOT soft, wear-resistant, 5-10% more on the edge, and almost "eternal" during normal driving. They're a bit heavy due to stiff sidewalls with RunFlat - a puncture isn't a problem to drive to a tire shop, and they don't deform when stacked.

The noise level has been improved compared to the previous M1/2, but they still sound above 110 km/h, save fuel (roll without gas, resisting medium, while humming). High-quality material: as an indicator, they don't become brittle at -30°C (all our tires from different batches are German - technology, however), which provides a dense effort (informative on the wheel), and after 10-12 years, there are no cracks (just store them correctly). They're well-made (no defects on 300 tires). Our region has average roads: in general, out of 100 tires, only 1-2 get damaged, and they withstand punctures at around 80 km/h (this cord stiffness will slightly reduce comfort).

**In winter, take a narrower width (especially on frequent black ice/skating rinks - so even narrower) for pressure on the road and to "shoot" through a snowbank (but not narrower than the disk). Reviews - from jeeps/sedans/vans... so opinions clearly differ (weight, suspension, region, skills are all different) - read about cars similar to yours

You can buy them, even used!!! but manage to sell them before 60% wear (the last layers of the tread are harder and noisier)

2nd set rolling out!!!
The tire is very decent!! It was on Toyota - rolled out! Now on BMW 740 also rolling out! The rubber is very good, but a bit hard - that's a fact!! I think its characteristics in winter weather are much more important than comfort!!!! Super)))) by the way, and it doesn't make noise at all))) better than summer tires...!!
Pros: Holds, everything is predictable))
Cons: Hard

Good for asphalt, bad for snow

I've driven 3800 km. On dry/wet asphalt, it's super. Noise in the cabin after 160. On a damp highway at 100-110, the rear end swings, giving the impression that the wheel is punctured. In Kiev, in streets where the snow is not cleared, on a snowy downhill, the wheels skid and give up quickly. In general, I'm not satisfied. I used to have a Lan

I'm not going to impose my opinion. I like these tires.

I have to drive around the country in any weather (winter). I've driven for three seasons without any problems. If someone had to drive in the winter of 2005-2006 on the roads of our vast country, not in the city behind a snowplow, then there's no point in continuing. From my experience, I'll say that it's necessary to choose the correct tire pressure, it seems

It brakes for a very long time!

it brakes for a very long time, once had to go into the oncoming lane to avoid a collision with the car in front, which was moving slowly, also the tire has poor traction with the road

Good tires

I drove on used tires of this company in the winter of 07-08, although I regret buying only 2, as the front ones were quite good Continental winter tires, there were no problems, even in almost critical situations. I don't know how it is for others, maybe it can't show its best side on all cars, but I really liked them, so I even kept them on the drive wheels all summer and autumn. So, tomorrow I'm thinking of

In my opinion, it's worthy

I've been riding such tires on a tuscan, excellent tires, they hold the road, not afraid of water, and snow as well. On ice, they are predictable (the compound is such that it's almost like having studs). I like them. I changed cars (to a bigger one), and they don't have my size, otherwise I would buy them again. They are cheaper than Michelin and GoodYear, and in terms of

Excellent tyre! We've used them all year round in the UK for 3 years with random European trips in the summer (temp above 30°C). They've done 45,000 miles and still have about 1mm on the legal limit.

Tires are SUPER.
I got a used one with 50% wear already.
Holds the road perfectly (dry, wet asphalt)
Bad on ice and packed snow.
Regret they stopped production, I'd happily buy the next set.

Got a car from Germany with Runflat tires. Yes, they're heavy, but they didn't burst my brain with punctures. I drove calmly to the tire shop without any headache, and the computer always accurately detected the drop in pressure. I note that punctures occurred because I was driving in a traffic jam on tram tracks, and the conductors or whoever were constantly scattering nails so as not to inconvenience drivers there.

About the tire itself: it's predictable to handle on snow and on wet
