Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT

Exceptional dry grip and responsiveness, for high performance sports driving

The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT is a race-proven tire that delivers exceptional dry grip.

  • Superior dry grip
  • Precise handling and responsiveness
  • High speed and cornering stability
  • Superior dry grip
  • Precise handling and responsiveness
  • High speed and cornering stability

The Sport Maxx GT uses brand new compound technology from Dunlop Motorsport and the latest asymmetric tread design. It delivers outstanding dry handling and unparalleled road feedback, bringing the car to life. Ideal for specialist ultra high performance cars. Exceptional dry grip and responsiveness, for high performance sports driving: Superior dry grip, precise handling and responsiveness and high speed and cornering stability.

Technology (Features):

  • The advanced carbon black compound increases dry grip
  • Includes Dunlop Touch Technology® delivering subtle and precise road feedback for improved control
  • New Hybrid Overlay Bandage (HOB) helps limit tyre distortion, even under high-speed conditions
  • Latest compound technology from Dunlop Motorsport means class leading dry handling

Consumer benefits:

  • Excellent acceleration and braking performance
  • Rim protection that protects expensive alloys from kerbing
  • Longer tread life
  • Excellent steering precision
  • Excellent grip due to larger surface area contacting the road
  • High aquaplaning resistance

Superior dry grip with racing technology. Enjoy exceptional road adherence with the SportMaxx GT. The tread compound is mixed with racing carbon black to increase dry grip and braking performance.

Precise handling and responsiveness. Dunlop Touch Technology combines several advanced features that deliver accurate handling and responsiveness. A flatter tread profile puts more tyre in contact with the road, for increased steering precision and road feedback.

Specific bead seat system. Strengthens the link between tyre and rim for a more precise driving experience. Like the grip between your hand and the steering wheel, the Specific Bead Seat System enhances control and conveys outstanding road feedback. Benefits Enhanced road feedback; greater stability and precision.

Silica-Plus Compound. A motorsport derived tread compound that delivers high levels of grip, particularly on wet roads and in low temperatures.Benefits Superb braking and acceleration performance; high grip in wet and cold-weather conditions; low wear and tear.

Nanoparticles. Tread compound mixed with nanoparticles of racing carbon black. These nanoparticles are combined with resin and polymers to provide excellent adhesion on dry and wet roads.Benefits Superior dry and wet grip, precise braking, improved wear.

Jointless Belt (JLB). A Hybrid Overlay Technology that reduces circumferential deformations at high speeds.Benefits Superior high speed stability

Multi Radius Tread (MRT). MRT designs employ ten different radii and are therefore more precise. This results in highly effective pressure deployment on the road contact patch. The effect is smoother transitions from straight to corner, leading to more precise and progressive reactions.Benefits Significantly better control over the evolution of the footprint in all driving conditions; responsive wet and dry handling; increased cornering control.

Dual Silica Compound. This compound improves acceleration performance and promotes low wear and tear.Benefits Superb braking and acceleration performance

Maximum Flange Shield (MFS). A rim flange protection system. MFS employs a profile of rubber that runs around the circumference of the tyre above the wheel flange. This creates a protective buffer zone.* Benefits Protects expensive alloy wheels from kerbing.* Only available in select sizes

Variable land to sea ratio. Asymmetric tread design with a variable land to sea ratio delivers high levels of aquaplaning resistance. The massive outer shoulder block ensures rapid and turbulence free water drainage, while also ensuring outstanding cornering stability.Benefits High aquaplaning resistance; increased road contact; enhanced cornering stability and steering precision.

Asymmetric Tread Design. Asymmetric tread design provides improved handling and aquaplaning resistance. The continuous center rib increases stability and precision. The asymmetric groove arrangement enhances grip on wet and dry surfaces.Benefits Improved performance on straight lines and around corners

Flatter tread profile. The new generation of Dunlop tyres features a flatter tread profile with a 4-8% bigger contact patch, depending on size and type of tyre. A bigger contact patch delivers more stability and enhanced road feedback, allowing tires to respond quickly and precisely.Benefits Increased stability and steering precision; reduced heel and toe wear; excellent cornering stability and precision; superior dry grip.

Excellent grip and low noise levels & comfort. Tramlining at the slightest road irregularity makes this tyre unpleasant to drive and possibly dangerous. Tyres fitted to front axle only.

13.09.2015 from Mark H
Can let go under hard cornering in the dry, usually just a step out requiring a dab of power to correct. I tend not to push too hard in the wet for this reason. Great tyre in all other respects.

An excellent tyre great grip in both wet and dry and for this type of tyre lasts surprisingly well
