When heading to a winter vacation by car, appropriate winter tires are a must, and even in everyday life, these tires show significant advantages over summer tires at temperatures below 7 °C. A highly recommended tire in this category is the Dunlop Winter Sport 5. This relatively new tire on the market is considered a high-performance winter tire, equipped with multi-sipe technology to handle all winter challenges. The many small lateral grooves are intelligently distributed in various designs across the entire tread, providing optimal grip on snow, wet surfaces, and even ice.
Of course, the Dunlop Winter Sport 5 is not only designed to ascend hills under the worst road conditions. An optimized design ensures very high driving stability and excellent handling characteristics. When road conditions permit, this winter tire can also be driven at higher speeds. At least the speed index H indicates that this tire type is approved for speeds up to 210 km/h. At the same time, the Dunlop Winter Sport 5 excels in high aquaplaning resistance. Its braking and wet performance are rated B on the EU tire label. With a reduced rolling resistance (Class C from G), this model is relatively fuel-efficient for a pure winter tire with M+S designation. Even the rolling noise is kept within limits at 70 dB (A), with some sizes of the Dunlop Winter Sport 5 being even quieter.
