Dunlop  Sport Maxx Race

Exceptional dry grip – on and off the track

The Dunlop Sport Maxx Race delivers exceptional dry grip and braking, on and off the track.

Description:

Designed for high performance cars capable of track day commitments. Excellent dry performance and ultimate grip and braking capabilities thanks to motorsport derived technologies. Exceptional dry grip – on and off the track.

• Superb dry grip and braking
• Precise steering and handling stability
• Enhanced cornering grip

Reliable wet performance. Superb dry grip and braking. Maximize your track performance with the SportMaxx Race.

Derived from Dunlop Motorsports technology, the high grip racing compound gives you exceptional levels of road adherence and braking ability. This track optimised tyre is fully approved for road use. Precise steering and handling stability. Enjoy precise steering response and consistent handling. The SportMaxx Race uses a hybrid overlay to limit tire distortion at high speeds, enhancing steering and stability. Enhanced cornering grip. The tread features high angle ribs to increase lateral stiffness, for improved control when performing cornering manoeuvres.

Massive outer shoulder blocks increase cornering grip. Reliable wet performance While optimised for dry, the SportMaxx Race performs well in wet conditions. The asymmetric tread design features four inner grooves to quickly evacuate water, reducing the risk of aquaplaning. Flatter tread profile. The new generation of Dunlop tyres features a flatter tread profile with a 4-8% bigger contact patch, depending on size and type of tyre. A bigger contact patch delivers more stability and enhanced road feedback, allowing tires to respond quickly and precisely. Benefits Increased stability and steering precision, reduced heel and toe wear, excellent cornering stability and precision, superior dry grip.

Enhanced cornering grip. The tread features high angle ribs to increase lateral stiffness, for improved control when performing cornering manoeuvres. Massive outer shoulder blocks increase cornering grip.

Excellent grip and acceleration on ice and snow. Confident winter grip – in four dimensions. Dunlop’s advanced 4D studs feature a sharp leading edge for superb traction when accelerating on ice. The winter tread compound stays soft in extremely cold temperatures. A multi-edge tread pattern adds extra gripping power.

Technology (Features):

• Asymmetric pattern design for excellent performances on dry
• Hybrid overlay featuring Aramid for a better steering and handling stability
• Motorsport derived compound for ultimate grip performances
• High angle ribs for a better cornering grip

Consumer benefits:

• Great steering response at high speeds
• Ultimate grip
• Excellent acceleration and braking performance
• Very good control on dry and wet surfaces

Silica-Plus Compound. A motorsport derived tread compound that delivers high levels of grip, particularly on wet roads and in low temperatures.Benefits Superb braking and acceleration performance; high grip in wet and cold-weather conditions; low wear and tear.

Jointless Belt (JLB). A Hybrid Overlay Technology that reduces circumferential deformations at high speeds.Benefits Superior high speed stability

Maximum Flange Shield (MFS). A rim flange protection system. MFS employs a profile of rubber that runs around the circumference of the tyre above the wheel flange. This creates a protective buffer zone.* Benefits Protects expensive alloy wheels from kerbing.* Only available in select sizes.

Asymmetric Tread Design. Asymmetric tread design provides improved handling and aquaplaning resistance. The continuous center rib increases stability and precision. The asymmetric groove arrangement enhances grip on wet and dry surfaces.Benefits Improved performance on straight lines and around corners.

Flatter tread profile. The new generation of Dunlop tyres features a flatter tread profile with a 4-8% bigger contact patch, depending on size and type of tyre. A bigger contact patch delivers more stability and enhanced road feedback, allowing tires to respond quickly and precisely.Benefits Increased stability and steering precision; reduced heel and toe wear; excellent cornering stability and precision; superior dry grip.

Multi Radius Tread (MRT). MRT designs employ ten different radii and are therefore more precise. This results in highly effective pressure deployment on the road contact patch. The effect is smoother transitions from straight to corner, leading to more precise and progressive reactions.Benefits Significantly better control over the evolution of the footprint in all driving conditions; responsive wet and dry handling; increased cornering control.

Dual Silica Compound. This compound improves acceleration performance and promotes low wear and tear.Benefits Superb braking and acceleration performance.
