The Dunlop SP SportMaxx RT is a summer tyre designed for high performance with minimal braking distance on both wet and dry roads. Asymmetric tread design combined with a motorsport inspired rubber compound works best with temperatures over 7 degrees Celsius to allow for an even faster drive. It also features an Adaptive Compound, a resin used in Dunlop’s motorsport work, to provide an extra edge in braking grip. The SP SportMaxx RT has Short Braking Blocks positioned at steep angles to allow for the maximum contact patch to be present when the braking force is applied to the tread. The water clearing grooves, along with the large outer blocks of the tread, help perform at high levels during cornering as well.
The Sport Maxx RT 2 is the next step in Dunlop’s summer performance tyre design and is the successor to the RT. The Sport Maxx RT 2 also features runflat technology in certain sizes. The runflat technology features sidewalls that are reinforced and continue to support the vehicle should a puncture occur for vehicles that are designed for this system. You can find the Dunlop SP SportMaxx RT, along with the runflat version, at Tyres.co.uk.
