Product description & features

The Dunlop SP SportMaxx RT2 summer tyre targets high performance in quick steering and braking scenarios. Dunlop’s Dynamic Response Technology allows the SP SportMaxx RT2 to push more rubber onto the tarmac in cornering situations. The tyre’s asymmetric tread features a hard outer shoulder, a stable centre, and a continuous centre section. The braking and grip performance of this tyre on wet and dry tarmac is thanks to Dunlop’s Adaptive Compound, a silica-rich rubber blend.

The SP SportMaxx RT2 is the successor of the SP SportMaxx RT. It’s the latest addition to Dunlop’s performance tyre line-up. The SP SportMaxx RT2 is also available in reinforced XL construction for higher load applications. The Self-supporting RunOnFlat versions allow a vehicle to continue to run on the tyre for a limited distance after losing pressure. At Tyres.co.uk, we offer the SP SportMaxx RT2 and the RunOnFlat versions.

Highlights

  • Asymmetric tread, hard outer shoulder
  • Silica-rich rubber blend
  • Reinforced XL versions available

Tyre review for Dunlop SP SportMaxx RT2 225/55R17 97Y
The traction, for a high torque rear-wheel-drive vehicle, is outstanding. They adhere to the road far superior to the previously equipped Falken F453s. Though I think they may be made by the same company, these tyres are in an entirely different class.
