Exceptional levels of grip and handling, for high performance sports cars
Enhanced grip on wet and dry
Precision handling at speed
High aquaplaning resistance
Enhanced driving comfort
Benefits:
Enhanced grip on wet and dry The SP SportMaxx GT 600 delivers high levels of wet and dry grip to answer the demands of sport driving. It uses silica to maintain flexiblity on rain covered surfaces. Carbon particles in the compound help to ensure good dry grip, for improved braking and acceleration.
Precision handling at speed Get maximum driving enjoyment when traveling at speed. The tread features large shoulder blocks and continuous center ribs for precise cornering and steering.
High aquaplaning resistance Straight central grooves maximise water dispersal to ensure safer driving in heavy rain conditions.
Driving comfort Dunlop’s Jointless Band Technology maintains tyre shape at high speeds, giving you a smoother ride while also maximising steering control.
ROF Technology:
Dunlop RunOnFlat Technology allows for continued driving after a puncture or blowout for up to 80km. RunOnFlat tyres use reinforced sidewalls, which enable the tyre to maintain mobility after a complete loss of air pressure.
EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes
The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.
Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.
The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.
With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.
Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.
Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
