  • Tick Icon Car
    Car tyre:

    Designed for cars, rather than vans, 4x4s or commercial vehicles.

    A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.

  • Tick Icon Winter
    Winter tyres:

    Designed for temperatures below 7°C. Summer tyre rubber hardens in the cold and loses grip, while a winter compound stays soft and holds the road in cold, wet and snowy conditions.

Product description & features

Dunlop Winter Sport 5 tyres are designed for maximum traction and braking when driving on cold, damp road surfaces, on slush and on snow, with a directional V shaped tread pattern to channel water and slush away from the contact patch. These tyres have wide grooves around the tyre to form water evacuation channels. Slits across the tread pattern add friction for improved grip on compacted snow and cold damp surfaces.

The 3PMSF marking indicates that these tyres are certified for severe snow conditions. There is also a variant of these tyres for SUVs, which have a reinforced structure for greater load capacity. Tyres.co.uk stocks all variants of the Dunlop Winter Sport 5, including the SUV version.

Highlights

  • Directional V-shaped tread pattern
  • Wide water evacuation grooves
  • Tread slits for snow grip
  • Three-peak snowflake marking
