Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 050 Tires
The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 050 (LX) is a high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles. This specific tire is marked with LX as it is the original equipment of Lexus vehicles. This tire is for the rear axle position.
This tire model promotes great summer weather traction. It helps to combine the summer compound and the asymmetric tread design in order to enhance the dry and wet weather grip. This combination ensures the tire’s summer weather application, promoting a secure forward motion throughout the drive. Wider circumferential grooves disperse water from the footprint, avoiding hydroplaning at all times.
The asymmetric tread design helps to increase the surface contact at all times, upgrading the steering responsiveness and driving stability. This results in the tire’s exceptional handling, by guaranteeing the driver’s better control over the vehicle with a quick and precise steering response, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure. The shoulder block placement upgrades the cornering ability with the grip on the road surface. The angled lateral grooves generate friction at the moment of braking, significantly shortening the braking distance.
The special Hybrid Kevlar Nylon Band allows the tire to improve the high speed durability. As the tire does not deform, enabling the tire to maintain the ideal tire shape under the high speed performance. Summer compound prevents heat build-up across the tread area, further optimizing the high speed driving safety levels.
This is a run flat tire. This tire offers a limited, temporary performance after air pressure loss. The strengthened structure withstands the weight of the vehicle and its passengers, enabling the tire’s 50-mile, 50 mph performance in case of air pressure loss. This enables the vehicle to safely arrive at a nearby location where the tires can be fixed or changed. As a result, the vehicle is not stranded on the side of the road with a faulty tire. These tires cannot be mounted on the same vehicle together with regular tires.
The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 050 (LX) helps to increase the driving comfort. The durable structure also enables the tire to closely follow the road surface at all times. The tire absorbs the driving shock, minimizing the road vibrations felt by the passengers, offering a comfortable driving experience.
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.
