Dunlop SP Sport Maxx TT DSST. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Summer weather traction; Vibration-free drive; Precise steering responsiveness; Enhanced cornering ability; Longer lasting even tread life; Rim protectors; Run flat tire model; . OVERVIEW: The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx TT DSST is a high performance summer tire manufactured for performance vehicles.The tire was manufactured with the Multi-Radius Tread Technology shaped into an asymmetric tread design. This ensures excellent dry and wet weather road gripping ability. The enhanced tread design confidently controls the tire without issue in summer conditions, while the circumferential grooves prevent hydroplaning by improving the water evacuating ability. The better water dispersal and summer weather road grip ensure a safer driving experience in dry and wet weather.Dunlop's Self-Supporting Technology enables the tire's limited temporary performance in case of air pressure loss. This allows the tire to be driven on for 50 miles up to the speed of 50 mph once air pressure leaves the tire due to a puncture or other damage. The stronger structure prevents the vehicle from being stranded on the side of the road. Instead, they it can be driven to a nearby location where the damaged tire can be fixed or changed, which increases the driving safety levels.The tire offers a comfortable and enjoyable drive. The Jointless Band Technology, found in the tire's internal structure, is a spirally wrapped nylon cord that strengthens the tire's body and maintains its shape. As the tire does not deform under the driving pressure affecting it, it can perform well and closely follow the road surface in all summer conditions. This reduces the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin while the tires are in motion. The result is a road vibration-free driving experience.The tread pattern and the strengthened lower sidewalls maintain road contact at all times. As a result, the tire provides easier and quicker steering in all summer weather. The tread design grips the road, while the reinforced sidewalls keep the tire's contact with the road, which guarantees a swift and precise steering responsiveness. The better steering makes the tire easier to control and allows a safer drive.The tire's flat tread design and enlarged road contact patch enhance the cornering and maneuvering ability and power. The better road grip during such situations increases the tire's performing ability by providing a safer and quicker maneuverability. The tire's maintained road contact is the result of the additional biting edges the tread design and road contact offer. The extra biting edges grip onto the road surface in all cornering and maneuvering situations to ensure a more secure driving experience.The model offers a long lasting tread life. The motorsport-inspired tread pattern manages the tread wear. It evenly distributes the driving pressure across the tread area. This equal spreading out of the forces of acceleration, cornering and braking prevents irregular tread wear patterns from forming across the tread. The extended even wear enables the tire to be used for a longer period of time, increasing its usability and tread life.The SP Sport Maxx TT DSST is designed with the Max Flange Shield. It guards the rims from accidental curb and driving damages and prevents them from getting damaged.Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
