The Winter Sport 5 SUV 235/55 R17 103V XL 3PMSF from Dunlop offers high security thanks to numerous cutting-edge technologies. Dunlop has developed a specific "heel support" system that enhances the connection between the tyre and the rim, providing you with greater precision in driving. Its V-shaped grooves efficiently channel away water and snow. The tread uses an optimised rubber compound derived from motor racing. The "MRT" technology allows it to have a larger contact surface with the ground. The tyre is more resistant to wear.
Increase in the amount of water to be evacuated.
The weight in the tire is distributed more efficiently.
Enhancement of lateral grip on slippery roads, thanks to the central sipes now parallel to the edges of the shoulder blocks. This allows an increase in the length of ground contact, and an improvement in the opening.
The pressure distribution is homogenized, thanks to the improvement of the geometry which allows optimal rigidity of the block structure.
For better handling on snowy roads, the V-shaped grooves and tread grooves retain snow in a mesh. Traction and grip are improved thanks to snow-on-snow contact.
