Dunlop Sport BluResponse

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Summer weather traction
• Fuel efficient drive
• Enhanced controllability
• Shorter braking distance
• High speed durability

OVERVIEW

The Dunlop Sport BluResponse is a performance and high performance, summer tire manufactured for passenger vehicles.

The tire promotes exceptional summer weather traction. The asymmetric tread pattern and tire compound work together to ensure excellent dry and wet weather road gripping ability. The wide center circumferential grooves actively avoid hydroplaning situations by eliminating water from below the tire footprint. While the tire promotes superb summer weather driving safety, it does not perform well in winter conditions, as the tire compound loses its flexibility in colder temperatures.

The model is very fuel efficient as well. The special aerodynamic shape optimizes the tire's road contact to ease the pressure off it and the low-heat tire compound prevents heat buildup along the tread area. The lowered pressure affecting the tire decreases the tire's rolling resistance, which is a force affecting the tire that determines how much energy the vehicle needs to use maintain the tire's motion. The lessened rolling resistance reduces the vehicle's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions as a result and guarantees an environmentally friendly and fuel conscious tire.

The model offers a flat tire footprint that enhances its road contact at all times. Its internal structure features a hybrid aramid overlay that prevents its shape from deforming under the driving pressure. The specific bead seat system enhances the contact between the tire and the wheels which increases the road feedback. The combination of these enhancements ensures a safer controllability as they improve the steering responsiveness and accuracy and the driving stability. The steering becomes quick and precise to the driver's instructions, while the tire is stabilized against the driving pressure affecting it at high speeds. The better controllability enables the driver to confidently control the tire even at high speeds.

The special tread pattern promotes stiff tread blocks. This, along with the flat tire footprint, increases the model's braking capability by improving the road contact. The better road contact allows the tire to offer a shorter braking distance. The bigger and flat footprint provides a wider road contact area that creates friction, while the stiff braking tread blocks maintain their optimal shape and do not deform under the driving pressure. The friction created at the moment of braking makes the tire stop shorter. This enhances the driving safety greatly.

The tire's internal structure features a hybrid aramid overlay, while its tread stiffness is guaranteed with the polymer-enhanced compound. The internal structure maintains the tire's optimal shape and it prevents deformation. The polymer compound optimizes the tread stiffness to prevent tread flexing during the drive. These aspects allow the tire to perform to its best high speed capability with ease as they improve the high speed driving safety.

The Sport BluResponse offers a quiet and comfortable driving experience. The asymmetric tread design's closed shoulder grooves avoid pattern noise from forming as they prevent the airwaves from coming into contact with the tread elements. The lowered road noise levels heard in the vehicle while the tire is in motion guarantees an enjoyable drive.

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.
