Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Winter weather traction
- Enhanced controllability
- Reduced road vibrations
OVERVIEW
The Dunlop SP Winter Sport 4D is a performance and high performance, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.
The model offers great winter weather traction. The 4D siping detail of the directional tread design, together with the winter weather compound improve the cold temperature winter weather road gripping ability. The compound keeps its rubber flexibility in colder temperature conditions, while the 4D siping pattern increases the number of biting edges gripping the ice- and snow-covered road surface. The tread's V-shaped groove pattern enhances the hydroplaning resistance. They disperse water and slush from below the tire's footprint and ensure a cold temperature wet weather traction.
The tire's tread pattern enhances its controllability and maneuvering. The special interlocking siping detail of the directional pattern maintains the tire's road contact, which increases the steering responsiveness and accuracy to the driver's commands and stabilizes the structure against the driving pressure affecting the model. The larger shoulder tread block placement increases the cornering and maneuvering capability and power. Their siping detail heightens the number of biting edges that firmly grip the road surface in such situations, which improves the cornering ability. The 4D siping detail and the stronger compound upgrade the braking capability as well. They create friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking, which guarantees a shorter braking distance. The better overall control guarantees a safer driving experience.
The SP Winter Sport 4D promotes a comfortable drive. The tire's internal structure features Dunlop's Jointless Band Technology that places a continuous spirally wrapped nylon band in the tire's construction. This optimizes the tire shape and enables the model to closely follow the road surface. In this manner, the tire absorbs the shock of driving, which reduces the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin while the tires are in motion. The tire offers an excellent vibration free performing capability.
