OVERVIEW
The Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport (N0) is a performance and high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles. This specific model is the original equipment tire of Porsche vehicles. This tire is for the front axle position.
This tire offers excellent summer weather traction, and it grips the road well in wet and dry conditions thanks to the silica-based tread compound. The tire, however, is not suited for use in winter weather or colder temperatures, as the compound loses its traction in those conditions and it can be subjected to weather damage. The circumferential grooves in the tread help eliminate water from below the footprint and enhance the tire's resistance to hydroplaning.
The tire's tread pattern and its flat footprint maintain constant road contact. The continuous contact between the road and the tire improves the steering precision and responsiveness. The tire responds to the commands of the driver quickly and accurately, allowing better control over the tire. The increased controllability and handling of the tire boost its high speed driving safety.
The tire's high speed and on-road safety are further enhanced with its jointless cap ply structure. The tire does not deform under the driving pressure and has exceptional durability on the road. As the tire keeps its shape, even under high speed driving pressure, it is safer and easier to steer. The driving stability of the tire was also upgraded with this internal structure, as it provides a safer driving experience. The tread design's larger shoulder blocks provide additional biting edges while cornering. The extra grip in those conditions improves the cornering ability and power of the tire, enabling faster and safer maneuvering.
The Dueler H/P Sport (N0) offers a smooth and quiet drive. The optimized tread pattern reduces the road noise generated while the tires are in transit by channeling the airwaves through the footprint.
Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
