Dunlop SP Sport Maxx TT Reviews - Page 4

Given 54% while driving a Audi A4 1.8T Quattro (235/40 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 19,000 average miles
These tyres replaced my OEM Conti Sportcontact 2's and were very noisy for the first 5000 miles even with the correct pressure in the tyres. Gave good grip in the dry and OK grip in the wet. The tyres give apalling grip in cold weather and need to be warmed up before taking them to their limits but were OK once up to temperature. When at the limit they slid nicely with no unexpected behaviour and easy to handle. now on 19K miles they need replacing with 2.5 mm of tread due to cracks appearing between the treadblocks which seems to be common with dunlops. I won't be buying any more of these due to this problem.

Brilliant. Admittedly I only have these on the rear at the moment so when it comes to 'grip' it's all about how low down the loud pedal is.

Good tyre though - looks good and has rim protection - always a must!

For all the merits of these Dunlop Maxx tyres (on an A3 2.0 TDI Sportback), I could not wait to replace them due to the excessive noise (I have had several Premium brands and these were noticably noisier!). They were very good tyres though otherwise as I constantly drove the car like I was on crack, and despite all the torque through the front wheels they rarely squeeled to get grip, and lasted over 10,000 miles which is almost double the previous Pirellis I had.

Reasonable cost for this size of tyre. Good grip in the dry, but when it is slightly damp they let go very quickly.

Felt the tyres were always struggling to cope,especially in the wet, and disappointed with the wheel spin when pulling away.After 16k they are up for replacement. I won't be putting Dunlops back on.

Great holding & feel, thought Goodyear Eagle F1s were good but these are the biz.
