SP Winter Sport 4D Tyres description & features

The Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D features a directional 'V' shaped tread pattern, and is built to preserve winter steering response on wet, slushy and snowy roads. At the centre of the tread, Dunlop's 4D Sipe System places slits which, as the tyre rotates, form small blocks that slush and snow can sift into to provide and lock braking and cornering support. In addition, edge grooves carry slush and water away as the winter compound that makes the tyre remains flexible through the cold, allowing the rubber to stay in contact with the road.

Some of the tyre's variants feature Dunlop's RunOnFlat construction, which provide loss of pressure support for winter performance on compatible vehicles. The Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D was also the predecessor to the Dunlop Winter Sport 5. Tyres.co.uk stocks the RunOnFlat variants of the Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D.

Highlights

  • Directional V-shaped tread pattern
  • 4D Sipe System slits
  • Edge grooves clear slush and water
  • RunOnFlat versions available

Tyre review for Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D 205/45R17
Excellent grip on wet and icy roads. Better braking than my old tyres. Very quiet and comfy on the motorway and good on unsealed roads. Met my expectations, I think they are worth the money.

Tyre review for Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D 225/55R16
Up until now things are good, albeit with a bit more noise from the road and with slightly worse fuel efficiency relative to my summer Bridgestones. This is to be expected, but I anticipate better performance on snow and ice.

They're great in the rain. The stop much more quickly than my previous summer tyres. Hopefully they can handle ice well too!

Great winter tyres. They perform exceptionally well in the rain, far better than my summer ones. They have also managed snowy and icy roads quite well.

These tyres provide mediocre performance for their category. They were bought for winter conditions.

Tyre review for Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D 225/55R16
Up to this point, they have done a great job. They manage well in the wet. With the weather being quite mild this year, I have not had the chance to see how they perform on ice and snow therefore I have given them a rating of 4.

Tyre review for Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D 205/45R17
These tyres have lasted me several years with no problems even in ice and wet weather. Pretty remarkable for a rear wheel drive estate from a brand that can be a bit unpredictable at the rear.

Tyre review for Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D 205/45R17
These are great tyres! We have travelled through France, Germany, and similar areas to reach skiing destinations, and have had no issues. They handle both dry and winter conditions, offer great fuel economy, and have good grip. They show hardly any wear and are very quiet.

Tyre review for Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D 235/50R18
These tyres are fantastic for driving in snow. They provide fantastic feedback through the steering and great confidence. They also provide great grip driving up and around corners. They stop great while driving downhill on snow or while driving on a level surface. They are on my Seat Exeo ST sport tdi, basically the same car as an Audi A4 Avant.

Tyre review for Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D 235/50R18
The tyres do their job well in cold conditions. That said, it is hard to gauge their performance in heavy water and slush without having an alternative set to compare them to.
