Sport Maxx RT2 Tyres description & features

Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 is a summer tyre that was engineered based on high-speed braking procedures. This particular tyre features the Dunlop’s Short Braking Blocks that ensures optimal road contact with the brakes. Dynamic Response Technology helps transmit steering information from the wheel to the tyre and then to the road. Bringing the brake contact between the wheel and the tyre closer helps achieve greater stiffness of the tyre. The continuous grooves along the tyre from the front to the back help in draining the water and moisture from the tyre.

The Sport Maxx RT2 is a part of the Dunlop performance road tyre range, which is a replacement of the Sport Maxx RT tyre. The Dunlop Adaptive Compound consists of various rubber types located throughout the tyre surface that allows it to adapt to the variations of stiffness during braking. Side wall damage can help maintain the pressure in the tyre after the blowout. The Sport Maxx RT2 and the Run-Flat variants are available at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Short Braking Blocks
  • Continuous water-clearing grooves
  • Run-flat version available

Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
The tyres are great in any weather. Heavy rain also does not impact cornering and braking. I haven't tested the tyres in deep snow and based on the tread I would expect only average performance.

The tyres feel softer than my previous Dunlop ones, and during high speed cornering I can feel the car lose some stability.

Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
I have used this type for a long time. It has always met my expectations, whether I am driving fast, in the rain, or just in a normal situation, it stays quiet. I also feel safe when it is freezing. I really recommend this.

Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 255/40R20
While my vehicle is a Quattro and is able to grip extremely well, these tyres make my vehicle feel particularly stable, even when it is wet and boosts my confidence when cornering. We recently had snow and ice. Regardless of the fact that these tyres are designed for summer, they handled the weather extremely well and my traction control did not activate even once. I would definitely pick these tyres again.

I was really pleased with Dunlop tyres as they are much better than Pirelli which I felt gave a rough and loud ride.

Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 275/30R19
Usually work well in most conditions but do have some difficulties in cold and wet weather. I have felt the back end of my car slide out on slow tight corners and roundabouts. I would recommend caution below 5 degrees. Just to note, my car's weight is mostly at the front.

Tyre review for Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 275/30R19
As stated before, they are developing cracks and appear to wiggle when going over white line or tarmac seam. They are especially bad in wet conditions. Plus they are way louder than the Michelins I had before. Not happy with the garage that fitted them. They said they had to take the car out to reset the tyre monitors when really they reset automatically. They were gone for 45 minutes and when I got it back, it looked like it had been driven quite hard; there was black soot up the rear bumper and tailgate. The car is a Ford Focus ST estate, tuned to 300bhp.
