Dunlop SP Sport Bluresponse 215/60 R16 99 V XL

I bought Dunlop BlueResponse tyres because I was seduced by the advertised fuel economy and the modern compound used in their manufacture. I was also attracted by the low noise level. With regard to noise and fuel consumption, it is difficult for me to say, as I have bought only 2 for the front so far. All I can say is that you cannot hear rolling. However, I can recommend the tyres in terms of grip. I have braked hard a few times. They convinced me. I will not comment on the other characteristics of grip, as I drive a van (Citroen C8) and therefore do not drive crazy. PS. For the rear, I will probably buy tyres with a traditional tread depth (8 mm), as the 5 or 6 mm for the new Dunlop do not convince me as much Read more Collapse

The tire very good, especially pleased I am with driving after minor bumps. We almost did not hear the turning. The tire absorbs noise .. I wonder how I get mileage, but you can not see after approx. 8.5 thousand. Running any signs of wear. I would recommend. Price reasonable. Read more Collapse

Tire recommendable, good in the dry and in the wet, like while driving did not surprise me (that took place without unpleasant surprises.) A little bit louder when traveling by larger pools of water. TOTAL VERY GOOD TIRES. Read more Collapse

Recommended for drivers who have a quiet, eco-driving style on dry roads, and that is all they are suitable for. They are sporty in name but have nothing to do with sport. For a driver who prefers a dynamic and fast driving style, especially outside the city in wet, rainy or even torrential conditions when there is water in the street in ruts, I strongly advise against it. In this respect, the tyres disappointed me: at speeds above 80 mph, you have to be careful because the tyres jerk and rip when driving into deeper water. For such conditions, the Uniroyal Rain Expert is unquestionably better, which even at speeds of 100 mph cuts through water perfectly when you hit a rut, and on which I've been driving for 6 years and even with a shallower tread they perform much better in the rain than the brand-new Dunlop. Another area where the Dunlop disappointed me was the noise level, the tyre was louder than my old Uniroyal. I don't know what it's about, but the theoretical figures on the EU label's ABCDE indicators and 68 db are fairy tales. I'll admit that this is what I was thinking when I chose my tyres, that if the indicators show better performance in the rain than Uniroyal, and that they are quieter, I thought this would be the case. I have been driving on these tyres since March and I can say with full responsibility that, unfortunately, the label does not correspond to reality. I have a dynamic driving style and I drive a lot outside the city - to sum up, if I had to choose again, I would not buy the Dunlop tyres but the new Uniroyal Rain Expert tyres, which I have been driving on for quite some time now. I also have winter sport dunlop tyres, and here the situation is completely different as the tyres are really amazing. Apparently, the summer model didn't work out so well for dunlop. But that is just my opinion. Regards and best wishes. Read more Collapse

I've long argued that you don't buy Goodyear and Dunlop (they're the same concern) because, for your money, it's the biggest scam. You might as well buy Chinese brands. And somehow I foolishly let myself be fooled by tests and reviews (including here) and bought a set of brand new (11 week 2015) made in germany Dunlop Sport BluResponse 205/55/16 91V (I can give you the serial numbers if anyone doesn't believe). I thought, "well how much can you make this garbage" I thought, "well, how much crap can you make and market them to people - maybe something has changed in them..." Well, it hasn't, and I'm still convinced. Why? Well, the whole set, 4 Dunlop's - which so far have driven maybe 300 miles, have not been "topped up", "braked" (ABS and ESP), have not been broken in. (ABS and ESP), not driven over a kerb or anything like that - have run-out on the circumference of the tread. The kind that you can see with the naked eye when you turn the wheel on a raised car. The result? The car shakes all over and the noise is unbearable. I will of course complain, but it takes 2 months to process the complaint. In addition, it does not include reimbursement of costs related to mounting and removing the defective tyres (about 60 pounds), nor the cost of renting summer tyres/replacement wheels (after all, I am not going to live off winter tyres at +15°C in spring/summer). To sum it up: if you have too much money and want to get rid of your nerves, buy Goodyear or Dunlop. Otherwise, buy something else... And for those interested, I can provide full purchase details, invoices, photos etc... Read more Collapse
