Opinion from outside the UK

I bought my Dunlop SP Sport 01 last year and since now I'ce made about 6000 miles. I noticed that on tarmac the tyre is absolutely silent but it also effects from my tyre size, as they are not that wide to generate huge noise. Very good comfort which actually makes Dunlop SP Sport 01 probably the most comfortable tyre I have ever driven on. There are no skids, no slips. While braking it feels like the tyre literaly bites the tarmac. The only disadvantage that I noticed is that while driving long corners you feel like on a rocking chair ( i think that the soar is caused by 65 profile of my tyre). Dunlop SP Sport 01 performs pretty well on wet road surface as well. There are no slips at all and thanks to the water drainage the tyre is pretty resistant to aquaplaning. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

good tyre but only for one season. to be honest I was expecting something better. but to the point. while the new tyres behave very well both on dry and wet surfaces, keeping the corners pretty good. Unfortunately tread disappears in the blink of an eye. full tread, I managed to ride only 12000 - 13000 km for me it is a terrible result. another problem is that when tyre reaches the mid-tread tyres that are either no longer safe. namely, in dry conditions yet but let's just stick falls and everyone can not be a sharper turn to beat with greater speed really should be very careful. about the noise and the resistance does not have any objection for the life of normal. good tyres summing up in one two seasons. while new everything ok but after fatal. oh I forgot to add terribly hard tyre is suitable for sports cars. the limousines discourage a lot. suspension gets. generally not recommended.

Opinion from outside the UK

I have these tyres the BMW 5 (E61), and drove them several thousand. km. When it comes to the way I have to admit that both dry and wet conditions at least are doing well, but when it comes to quality that my tyres still have about 5-6 mm tread and began to teethe and unevenly on the inside of the clash ie did the "wave". Unfortunately, I do not bet them again! Now I go to Yokohama ADVAN Sport V103 and similar pieniążkach have a better tyre for the sky! I recommend Yokohama! Read more Collapse

The Dunlop SP Sport 01 features an asymmetric tread design which improves handling and provides greater protection against aquaplaning. The Dunlop Self Supporting Technology (DSST) makes it possible to continue driving safely for a further 80 km after a puncture or blow-out. The rim protection system features a carefully designed rubber profile which runs around the tyre's circumference to create a protective buffer zone. The tyre also features a hybrid overlay technology which reduces circumferential deformation at high speeds.
