Product description & features
The Dunlop Sport BluResponse is a summer tyre which boasts excellent performance in wet conditions and shorter braking distances.
Dunlop have constructed the Sport BluResponse with a polymer compound which provides you with better grip and handling on wet roads. The tyre also features 'Short Braking' blocks along the shoulder to aid in the reduction of braking distances.
Specifically designed in a more aerodynamic shape this, along with the low-heat compound, help to reduce the rolling resistance of the tyre by up to 30% when compared with its predecessor.
What are summer tyres?
Summer tyres are specifically designed for warm weather conditions, particularly during the summer season. This type of tyre performs best when in seasons with warmer temperatures - above 7°C.
How does a summer tyre perform better in summer?
The technologies and tread patterns used in a summer tyre mean the tyres have high-quality features that are of benefit to driving in warm conditions. They typically use a softer rubber compound – designed for good grip and traction when driving on dry and wet roads.
Can you use summer tyres in winter?
Whilst summer tyres still offer adequate performances in wet and cooler conditions, it is recommended that you change. The tread design and technologies that are featured in summer tyres can harden in colder temperatures, resulting in reduced flexibility and decreased traction on snow and ice.
