FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Summer weather traction
- Enhanced controllability
- High speed performance
- Reduced road noise levels
OVERVIEW
The Dunlop Direzza DZ101 is a performance or high performance, depending on the speed rating of the specific tire size, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.
The tire promotes great summer weather traction. The special Silicarbon Matrix tire compound ensures exceptional dry and wet weather traction, while the directional tread design boosts the road gripping ability with its tread elements. The model, however, is not meant to be used in winter weather as the compound does not maintain its flexibility in colder temperatures. The tread design's wide circumferential and curved lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning by eliminating water from below the tire's footprint. The enhanced summer weather traction and hydroplaning resistance guarantee a safer driving experience in warmer weather.
The directional tread design ensures exceptional controllability. The center rib and the large shoulder blocks work together to increase the steering responsiveness and the driving stability with their constant road contact. In other words, the steering is faster and more precise in its responsiveness to the driver's command, while the structure is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting the tires while they are in motion. The larger and firm shoulder tread blocks manage to upgrade the number of biting edges that grip the road surface. They boost the model's cornering and maneuvering ability to ensure a safer high speed performance.
The tire ensures first-rate safety. The Jointless Band Technology reinforced the tire's shape. It optimizes the tire's shape and prevents its deformation under the driving pressure affecting it. The constant tire shape allows the tire to ensure excellent high speed performance in dry and wet conditions. The tire also protects the rims from damage. The Max Flange Shield guards the rims and prevents accidental damage from harming them.
The Direzza DZ101 guarantees a quiet driving experience. The 5-Pitch Technology manages to lower the road noise generated while the tires are in motion. This tread design creates a sound frequency that negates the soundwaves the moment they are made, before they reach the vehicle's cabin. This results in a quiet and comfortable drive.
