Dunlop SP Sport Maxx

Dunlop SP Sport MAXX is an expensive and widely advertised tyre. Personally, I had Michelin tyres before, which are poorly rated here. Maybe it is true, but in comparison, these Dunlop tyres are no better. Yes, they have a little bit better traction in the corners, I can enter them a bit faster, but it doesn't build emotions in me. Maybe they are better because have hardly worn. But, the fact is, they don't squeal during sudden and sharp maneuvers, they only hum a bit. It's definitely easier to take and keep your driving track - but I was expecting something I could feel more! And I'm sure the car not has larger rolling resistance! Driveability is decent but my previous tyres gave me a better feeling of the handling. I didn't drive much on wet surfaces so I won't rate it yet. But I get the impression that they do not differ much from average tyres in their class. But I know one thing - I expected better performance for such a price. Therefore, I would like to give a bit of advie to those who consider getting Dunlop SP Sport MAXX tyres - think of a cheaper offer and the result will be similar. Maybe Dunlop SP Sport MAXX is a little better, but how many times we drive our cars on the edge to fell such a difference? This tyre manifests its advantages only in extreme conditions! So even if you drive with a bit of sports style - it doesn't meet the expectations. I regret that I spent so much money 150 pounds per tyre). I'm sure I'd get the same effect by buing them somewhere else... Read more Collapse

I was looking for reviews of Dunlop SP Sport MAXX before buying myself, so I feel oibliged to write something about these tyres. I rate them very well. I have a Volvo S60 D5 - 163HP and 340Nm which weighs almost 1500 kgs. The car performed really well on these tyres, grips the road nicely and allows to do much. It allows to take the corners fast, without any unexpected and unpleasant slides, the driver can feel the stability of the car. In addition to normal driving, it allows for "some craziness", it even "encourages" you to drive fast. On dry, the tyre is sensational (grips like glue) when it comes to performance on wet, I've always been happy with it and I rate it very well. It disperses water well - I never had a problem with the stability of the car when driving over the puddles. The tyres are very quiet at the same time. When it comes to wear, they wear evenly and a bit more than average (harder) counterparts of other brands. But Dunlop SP Sport MAXX are virtually sports tyres which are to provide great traction and this is normal. Generally speaking, signs of wear are visible after every season, but it's not tragic. I did about 20 000 miles on my set. Read more Collapse

I bought Dunlop SP Sport MAXX tyres for 2008 summer season and did ca. 20 000 miles. The tyres were used in an aggressive way, their grip on dry and wet is OK, they also have good traction in the corners and during starting and braking. They quickly wore out on the front, but I presume it's because of my driving style. The same happened to my previous two sets of tyres, the only thing that worried and cost me a bit was some side damage (due to which I had to dispose of two tyres) - one time on some bottle remains, second time agaist the curb. I did some mileage in my life and I had a lot of tyre sets, but this was the first time I had such bad luck. I recommend Dunlop SP Sport MAXX to those who have already had similar tyres. I get new tyres every season and always change the type of tyres, but always buy High Performance ones. The manufacturer is not important, every tyre has its pros and cons, you need to check out all of them to have some comparison and to be sure not to roll slowly on the road - because then all the tyres are good and there is nothing to overpay for, the differences come out in strange or extreme situations.

I am very disappointed with Dunlop SP Sport MAXX tyres, even if they are from a very good manufacturer (I am very pleased with their motorcycle tyres). Their advantages are definitely their decent price and good visual look. They grip pretty well on dry, but they are not revolutionary. Their great disadvantage is their bruising during stoppage - it's almost impossible to describe what's going on with this tyre. When I started the car after a few days of rest, I had to stop the car en route to check what's going on, as the vibrations were totally unbearable. It is bearable at a short distance, eg. 30 miles, but it's Dunlop and not a Korean tyre after all. Total disaster. What is more, Dunlop SP Sport MAXX are quite loud, louder then Continental winter tyres... After 25 thousand miles they're completely worn out, the tred wear index is on the same level as the tread. On wet surface they barely grip the road, and aquaplaning in the rain at speeds above 80 MPH is horrendous. Overall, Dunlop SP Sport MAXX are miserable products and made me stay away from Dunlop for at least a few years. Read more Collapse

Dunlop SP Sport MAXX are sharp and reliable tyres. During starting, it's difficult to turn on ASR on dry surface, and braking is so sharp you almost hit the wheel. On wet they slightly slide but the signal it with a characteristic noise - and I'm talking here about driving on the race track, because I couldn't make them slide on any typical paved road or in the corner, only on the inner side of the roundabout. Unfortunately, Dunlop SP Sport MAXX is not a purchase for those who like to save money - their rubber compound and the fact that the stripe with "Dunlop SP Sport MAXX" , worn out quite fast may mean I won't make 40 thousand miles on those despite the fact that I drive carefully and don't like to overdo the brakes - but something for something. When it comes to noise level, they have a good standard - on a typical road they hum a but above 80 MPH, but it's normal, and on the motorway with new pavement, they just give a gentle hum at 110 MPH - they are very quiet.

Amazing looking tyre, quite noisy, sensational grip on dry tarmac - on wet tarmac I unfortunately had a couple of occasions when the car didn't drive as it should (but only when cornering at speeds beyond the limits of common sense). In normal driving they do not give any unpleasant surprises. The tyres are quite hard, so lateral drift when cornering fast is virtually non-existent (tyres front 225/45/R17 rear 245/40/R17 and rear drive). After around 6,000 km there are hardly any signs of wear - the Dunlop lettering on the tread is still visible. For the money I would expect better wet performance, but it's still a great tyre - maybe a little too expensive. Translated with DeepL.com (free version) Read more Collapse

Originally had Dunlop Sportmaxx on the car from new but switched to Falken FK 452 and 453. The performance and life of the Falkens was very dissappointing (only 15,000KM). So I switched back to the Sportmaxx. They are a decent tyre, I was a bit dissappointed with life of only 22k on the original factory fitted ... but they have very good kerb protection and we'll see how much we get out of the this new set; hoping for more than 22k.

After a mileage of about 15000 / 20000 these tyres can already be replaced !!!!!!! It is a mockery that a tyre should be worn out so quickly, it has only been 8 months since the replacement. I have not written any comment because only today I am in a position to say something about these tyres, unfortunately in a negative way. I will never buy these tyres again !!!! Read more Collapse

Purchased a set for my bmw x6 Front 275 and back 315 I have nothing to complain about except the fact the the tyres got used quite fast- 7000 miles and i got 4 cm left. I drive quite calm and im not an aggressive driver whatsoever. Given the price of the tyres i was expecting a bit more. Overall good Read more Collapse

Two months ago I bought another set of these tyres and I am very pleased with them, they perform well in corners both on dry and wet pavement, I have already driven a total of around 50,000 km on this model and they have never let me down, I recommend them to anyone looking for good run flats.

Tyre warranty. Unfortunately I damaged a tyre. After reporting the damage and sending photos together with a specialist's opinion, I received a positive response and a refund within around two weeks. A big plus for such efficient service. Read more Collapse

I was looking for a tyre for the most difficult conditions, i.e. the first few minutes of rain when the asphalt has a slippery coating, and I finally found the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX, which is ideal for cornering. Read more Collapse

I only buy the original tyres that come with the car and after 3 year pay over priced Dunlop tyres this is the best site to buy them. Other then that I only wish they would last more than a year. Read more Collapse

Good value for money. One of the few tyres in this class made in Germany :) Very good performance on dry roads and not bad on wet roads. We will find out later about the service life Read more Collapse

I have them on the rear axle in a rear wheel drive car when starting they squeal slightly and pull forward . Very good grip.They have not let me down !!! Read more Collapse

I change them every 30,000 in the front, and every 60,000 in the back, the way I drive..., and anyway the tyre dealer tells me it could still go... Read more Collapse

A very good tyre with excellent handling characteristics and an aggressive design. I have not had the opportunity to test it in winter conditions. Read more Collapse

Quiet tyre, sticks well to the tarmac, even better on bends with the suspension lowered like a pancake. Superb Sport only max!!! Read more Collapse

Nice tyres. Excellent grip in all road conditions. On wet reduced water/planing effect. Consumption nn verified Read more Collapse

The harsh ride (rear drive) is a lot of fun but results in quite rapid abrasion, something for something.... Read more Collapse

The tyre was carefully packed and shipped. Absolutely new and genuine not some old stock being sold cheap. Read more Collapse

After about 10,000 km I can say that I feel satisfied with this tyre, quiet and good grip even in snow. Read more Collapse

Tyres tyres, pretty good but too expensive and nomenclature manufacturer peaks indicate the tyre ... not really, but they're okay. Skipping silence opinions of some reviewers, the type of bmw 530i says something about "tyre deformation and stop beating on the steering wheel." Just the car is złomiasty and suspension, as well one might invent the shock absorbers, springs and bushings, "August resided" at a standstill and the car stiff and noisy. They are good, but not too wet (hard rubber). Seriously speaking, I believe that there will be at least a dozen or so others - cheaper tyre models at least as good, or better. This is not none MAXX and suggesting the name can be disappointed. It's not that they are the masking sound Read more Collapse

Clincher ok - probably a little better behaves in the wet than dry, no "squeaks" with a sharp bow - just slide a car with a bend! Definitely way too loud ... seems like in the car "came out" bearing. Requires a slightly bigger pressure 2.4 - 2.5 bar copes well with holes (the smaller of course), the rut total disaster!!! constant struggle with prayer wheel and an efficient ESP when overtaking :-) definitely resistant to abrasion even with aggressive driving, as compared with a little less Conti "stick" to the asphalt (when starting) ... Conti but it had to be changed after 20 thousand. km because "wyłysiały" and the Dunlopkach soar even a little ... Determined for, minus the ruts and noise!! Read more Collapse

I have doubts about the quality of performance tyres. I have no objection to holding the parameters on the road, but it worries me that within 2 months of hurt in the same way 2 tyres (one to be thrown away). Tyres reportedly reinforced laterally, while the two were on the side of the intersection, one on the curb (I came close to the curb), the other did not even know where. In my opinion, with a mix of hard rubber is something wrong. Often brushed with curbs on other tyres, and never happened to me in this way their damage. At the moment I'm afraid to invade anything, I do not want to spend money again, makes no sense. I'd rather avoid those tyres. Besides, seems to me to be quite loud as this brand. Read more Collapse

Tire after 15 thousand virtually to exchange, howls of August can not withstand (very loud). At the beginning of driving parameters were very good, but now the drama. The braking distance of 140 is about 11m longer than contiwintercotact ... Tire terribly wyzabkowana after 2 seasons, I do not feel safe on it. When the dynamic traction jumps, jerks. Feel great resistance to oil, water very high aquaplaning. Even at a standstill does not meet my expectations, because deforms August. At low profile annoying. Poorly różwnież dampens vibrations. Generally advise against. The only thing good in the tire and it looks very good stability in curves, but unfortunately it does not compensate for other defects. Read more Collapse

So, yes, the tyre workout a little more than a week but already from the beginning can be seen that this is not just any product. above all, they are quite comfortable and are riding quietly and behave well on our wonderful "roads", and secondly, it seems to me to have very low rolling resistance, because how you disperse car and throw it is going to play and goes - so are the economic and decreases fuel zurzycie. it seems to me that my car accelerates better from a standing start. may not look impressive, the more I like the other tyres Dunlop SP Sport 9000 but the other properties mentioned above I think that eliminates this item. I will try the abrasion terminate for a while ;-) Read more Collapse

How do you warm up, you are good. The problem is that they warm up before a nasty tendency to deform. Just a few hours stop and have them do the eggs and then the first 8 - 10 km feel the vibrations on the steering wheel. Then the vibration stops. I tried to advertise it - to no avail. Dunlop position is such that "the type as is," and this is the most normal phenomenon. laughable. I had a lot of other tyres maximum performance in this category (eg, Bridgestone S03, ContiSportContact2) and none of them deforms so no, at least not after a few hours of standing. So, despite a pretty good grip, definitely do not recommend it. Alienated anyway to Dunlop. Next time I go back to Conti. Read more Collapse

Great tyre on dry pavement, wet well is not bad, but it certainly is done with the aim of aggressive driving on dry roads. Keeps well in the curves when driving fast. Very easy to feel and to go to the limit of grip. I did the tyre about 25tyś and here comes the drawback, because very quickly consumed by a little less quiet ride. If anyone wants to ride harder must be reckoned with less mileage on this tyre. If someone wants a higher mileage tyre with a quiet ride, and at the same tyre is also very safe I recommend. PS for me after 25 thousand two tyres are suitable for about 15 thousand. (Last year were so), but the front ripped off quite a bit. Read more Collapse

Regarding tyres - tyres represent excellent handling on dry pavement, they are really quiet, good holding ground. Pretty soon the clash (this is the cost of a relatively soft rubber) so you are so tacky and dry. The situation changes quite a bit when it starts to rain, the tyre slip when braking and starting, cornering never so far not felt the sensation slip what is important and here a big plus. Use - to work every day 40km one way out of town. every day in the hometown of the mountainous nature. Every Sunday in the forest road, "tight" is not paved. For those who have not benefited from a shop Oponeo - highly recommended. Regards Read more Collapse

Tyre drove around 45-50 thousand for 4 years, after the third year of micro-cracks appeared but I assumed it to four years because the tread was about 4 mm. Fourth year I have not finished the tread blocks began to fall apart - 3-3,6 mm tread, I would have to ride for the winter but from the inside. I noticed the crack on the side (rather mechanical failure, curb or something else). Tyres when they were young is probably correct but the noise more than the average and the older the worse, uneven tread wear, one blocks the other 2.9 mm 3.8 mm on one tyre. Now assume Vredestein Ultrac Cento, reportedly are quiet and comfortable, we'll see. Read more Collapse

B.duzo ride. about 100k km per year. These are my first tyre of this company. I am disappointed with the quality of the tyres. Tyres in all tests especially ADAC Very good fall as the # 1 position. This is not true. After one season wear. I drove a couple of seasons before Honda Accord with tyres (BF Goodrich Profiler GF) and the tyres are light years better to drive fast. That's what I did for BG broke the laws of physics, and the Dunlop tyres I drive like a pensioner. The tyre is not suitable for high speed driving, the car tilts from side to side, poor braking. The only plus was quiet and comfortable ride to the Polish holes. Read more Collapse

Previously, I would go to hell hard Conti Sport Contact. Love the Sport Maxx-y for the fact that: they are very quiet, they are extremely comfortable (great cushion), performs very well in severe driving and have a low rolling resistance, I was disappointed: for their rapid abrasion (drove 25 thousand on them and will do more up to 10 thousand, and the trash ..), and have lost quite a lot of wear on wet traction, dry seem to be just as safe as nówki. Whether I would buy it again? Yes! despite the fact that soon clash ... - But it's the fault of my fast car (160HP) and driving style. Very soft tyres - a great lead, Read more Collapse

Tyre on a dry (but really really dry) surfaces is doing brilliantly! Wet tragedy - poor roadholding and how you catch a piece of wet lane for pedestrians in general it's crazy (Cars do not have any great but I drive very fast and very aggressive and very positively appreciate this tyre in the dry! Mi front after one season clashed tyres so that the current will certainly have to change all 4. would buy again not because the time - the behavior of the wet, and two abrasion. If someone rages on dry and has enough common sense not to do it alone in the rain, and it also has the money I would definitely recommend. Read more Collapse

Everything in this tyre particularly good, but one of the only drawback - attrition. This tyre for fast and aggressive racing, especially in cars with above-placed center of gravity is used in the eyes. Something for something. I mention them on the other because I am coming to the determinants of consumption but even the rest of their life pomomo specifications traction, keep track really at a high level, in addition to the drainage course because of the higher speeds at the same time consumption has already can not cope and aquaplaning guaranteed. Do not buy more of them just because of the terribly rapid wear Read more Collapse

Hi I will not ring ... Unless it's millions of miles I drove as some do, that the driving style I would say so eco driving with the family and loneliness fast enough to not endanger other road users ... In 2008 I changed to Dunlop SP Sport 01 Very well holding the tyre on dry and wet roads, noise and wear as soft as Clincher OK. The appearance is a matter of taste-I like. I decided to buy a tyre because of the experience of the competition and confidence in the Dunlop brand. In winter riding Wintersport 3D on my family's safety is a priority for me, so I try to buy tyres with ultra-high segment. Regards Read more Collapse

Tyre far from the top, really recommendable. I had the opportunity to compare this tyre to Pirelli P Zero Nero. Dunlop behaving like glued to the asphalt. Quick maneuvers do not cause swinging / casting back of the car which is in turn very annoying for Pirelli. Driving comfort and the low profile is very good, very good noise levels, attrition is "only" good but it is dictated by maintaining a good grip of the tyres (except when aggressive driving is normal), rolling resistance - I did not notice that the car more burning as compared to the narrower tyre sizes. Definitely recommend this tyre. Read more Collapse

After about 10 000 km from the tire much left. I travel mostly on motorways at speeds above 140km / h. Tire reasonably well behaved on dry, wet with heavily on the gas quickly lose grip. The main disadvantage is very fast tread wear. I would not recommend for vehicles with fairly high torque. Sam have available 380Nm and after half of the season is the tire to be replaced. At high speeds of 160 - 200 km / h fast heat up above 200 km / h it is very loud for a civilian car tire (not racing). For fans of fast and dynamic driving advise against Read more Collapse

Earlier I Sp Sport 01 which is very good and comfortable it can be to drive many miles, but after the founding of Sp Sport Maxx auto turn inhibits better and better to drive. They are somehow specially loud as others are written but the most important is that they stick like mad, easily and quickly it can heat up, minus a limited run but something for something the mixture is soft. I would recommend to holders of strong cars and drivers who like to have a lot of grip, not looking for quick consumption. :) :) :) PS Mine are made in Germany Read more Collapse

Hello, Super tyres! I can not say a bad word about them since mile surprised me in almost every way. Distance traveled may not be stunning but at that time had the opportunity to test themselves in different situations. As for the driving experience: very confident handling the car in all conditions, great grip on dry and wet roads. A fairly large margin of safety, which I had the opportunity to see in extreme situations. Very quiet and comfortable. Pretty soon the clash but with this class of tyres is normal.
