Dunlop Tyres
Dunlop Rubber, originally founded in 1889 endured almost 100 years of success before financial difficulty forced the various Dunlop brands to be fragment and be sold between 1985-1997.
In 1985 the rights of manufacture and branding for Dunlop tyres was sold to Sumitomo Rubber Industries, who later acquired the rights to trade as Dunlop Tyres Ltd in the UK.
Now 75% owned by Goodyear, Dunlop has a proud and lengthy history as a tyre supplier to motorsport, and still stands alone as the sole supplier for the V8 Supercar Championship.

- The SP Sport 5000 is Dunlop's Ultra High Performance All-Season radial developed for drivers of sports cars, sporty coupes and performance sedans.
- The SP Sport 5000 is designed to provide ultra high performance and all-season versatility by blending traction on dry and wet roads with traction in light snow.
- Depending on the tyre size and/or Original Equipment vehicle application, the tyres feature either an asymmetric or symmetric tread design to tune their comfort, traction and performance characteristics.
- Most lower profile sizes feature an asymmetric tread design that feature large interconnected outer shoulder blocks and independent intermediate tread blocks to enhance dry road cornering and stability
- The inner tread blocks with open shoulder grooves enhance wet traction and reduce the risk of hydroplaning. Most higher aspect ratio sizes feature a symmetric version with large shoulder blocks, notched intermediate ribs and a continuous center rib to balance dry cornering and handling with wet traction and hydroplaning resistance.
- Full-face, cross-cut sipes engineered into all sizes provide more biting edges for slush and snow traction, and an exclusive high performance all-season tread compound is used to blend traction, treadwear, and rolling resistance to meet a wide range of driving and weather conditions. .
