Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3

Harry Pulley

"I put these on my MINI Cooper last winter and they did great. Traction even on dry pavement is quite good. Wet pavement and standing water is evacuated at an amazing rate, as is slush and loose snow. Great on ice too. Did a few winter rallies on them and they kept me on the road the whole time. They get a bit noisy as they wear and their snow and ice traction degrades a bit. I only expect to get two six-month seasons out of them."

"Top of the line - excellent slush, wet and dry - very good packed powder, good powder. All of this in a V rated snow tire? Kind of makes all season sound silly. Really exceptional handling for a snow tire, and they are really good in foul weather. And at the price - don't think twice! 2003 GTI VR6 - "

"Acura RSX-s - Great winter tire. I do alot of hwy driving and I spend all winter travelling thru the snow belts of Michigan and Ontario, and these tires did excellent. They are good handling, and stable at 80 mph for hours on end. Handled the rain really well and when ol' man winter does his best, these tires saved my butt. In loose snow these things are unstopable, in slush there great, even ice braking was exceptional. Ever stopped on a hill for a red light in 2 inches of slop, I did, with some gentle acceleration away you go! I even bet some friends I could drive thru 10 inches of fresh snow, stop and drive away, even though my car was waist deep away I went, no rocking, nothing. I'd buy these again for sure, best all round performance winter tire I've seen."

"Saab 9.2 Vector '03 - Pretty good tire. Only time it let me down was in 7" on a steep hill (fairly wide tread - 215/55/16's). Wearing MUCH better than Blizzaks I had on my last car. Pretty quite for a snow, and good ride. Handling? Its a dedicated snow tire; gets me around Denver just fine though. Would buy again."

"99 Saab 9-5 SE - Fantastic for the money. Rode better than the all season Gislaveds. Gave up a little on the corners but overall improvement in the wet, slush and snow. Threw out my Gislaveds and kept the Dunlops on. Great tread life after 10K miles. "

"Toyota Corolla (2004) - Very good tyre for continental Europe winter. Handles pretty well on 5-7" of snow. Wet traction rather good. In combination with Traction controll/Vehicle Stability Control no problem at all."

"BMW 330ci - I put these on for a winter on Chicago and what a difference they made. A little noisy, but worth the traction in incliment weather."

"Pontiac Bonneville GXP - 235/55R17 - These tires are incredible. I woke up this morning to find a foot of slushy snow on the ground. I had NO problems getting anywhere. When it comes to ice I have no problems stopping and starting while other cars are struggling. I drove the car on dry pavement before it snowed and they handled well. Clearly an excellent tire. If there still making them when I need new tires I will be buying them again."

"Honda Lx coup - 195/85/15 - Today we had a foot snow in Montreal Canada.Which is a perfect time to test theses tiers.I driven around just to see what they really like,my verdict is that they're excellent winter tiers.The traction was great and perdictable,with slush and pack snow without any problem.In the highway they're perfomred great,without any tiers noise that I noticed,I purposely turn-off my stereo just be sure,I have 4000Km on these tiers,I didn't noticed much wear on the 4 tiers either.I did hit a patch of ice ,the reponsed was better than average ,because some of the vehicle was basically lost control while my car did slide to side a bit ,but able to control it without any problem ,as on ice I can't offer the reader any final verdict.I would buy this tiers again for sure"
