Notable Features
Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 SUV is an asymmetric Ultra High Performance summer tire that was presented to the European motorists in 2018. This tire is characterized by reliable grip, crisp and lightning-fast steering response, as well as by efficient dry and wet braking performance. The tread design of the Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 SUV was borrowed from the Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 – the passenger modification of this tire. At the same time, the inner construction was optimized in order to ensure that the SUV tire is capable of tackling high loads.
The asymmetric tread pattern of the Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 SUV provides excellent wet handling and high hydroplaning resistance. In addition, the asymmetric arrangement of the traversal drainage grooves further increases wet and dry grip. The continuous central rib increases handling precision and stability. The V-shaped sipes in the central section of the tread prevent the tread from being too loose, thus boosting the tire’s grip not only when driving in a straight line, but also in corners. The increased stiffness of the tread blocks helps the UHP summer tire Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 SUV to ensure optimum contact with the road surface during emergency braking from a high speed. The flat tread profile, forming a large contact area, ensures good feedback through the wheel, allowing the tires to quickly and accurately react to the driver’s actions. In addition, it contributes to a more even distribution of pressure in the contact area, resulting in extending the tread life of the Dunlop Sport Maxx RT 2 SUV. The tread compound, which includes natural oils and polymers, tested by Dunlop on various racing tracks, allows the Dunlop Sport Maxx RT 2 SUV tire to maintain close contact with all of the road inequalities, easily adapting to weather changes.
Furthermore, the compound improves summer handling performance, at the same time improving the Dunlop Sport Maxx RT 2 SUV’s wet braking performance and resistance to wear.

Comments
Overall, the tires are very good, they have great cornering performance, very good properties on wet surfaces. One small disadvantage is the rolling resistance, and thus the fuel consumption of the car. In my opinion, safety is the most important thing, and driving on these tires forgives all the mistakes and fantasies of the driver.
