2017-12-10 - Is this tyre good and the wear of the tyre is it good or bad?

There have been no magazine wear tests of the Dunlop SP Sport FM800 but the user reviews on this website indicate the Dunlop SP Sport FM800 wears well.


2019-04-05 - Which tire is best value and better break test? Dunlop SP Sport FM800 or Toyo Proxes CF2

I have not seen these in a test together yet, sorry.


2019-08-22 - I wanted to ask what are the European labeling parameters of these tyres (wet grip, fuel efficiency and noise).

The label scores vary depending on size and part number. We don't keep records of the FM800 so it will be best to go directly to Dunlop.

Given 100% while driving a Honda FREED (195/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 2,000 average miles
Very good tires. Good grip and short braking distance. Very quiet too and definitely felt lighter than my previous t005 (which were excellent too but 205mm). Cheaper than the bigger brands and so far been very confident with these tyres in wet and dry.

Given 60% while driving a Mercedes Benz (245/40 R18) on for 24,000 easy going miles
Min point of my review was to highlight the very high wear rate. I only got 24,000kms out of a set on rear of our Mercedes C200 Wagon. This is just driven around town for general family use.

Given 91% while driving a Skoda (205/55 R16) on mostly country roads for 60,000 average miles
I have Skoda Octavia 1.4.
Firs I had Continental EcoContact 5 (terrible tires), then I switched to the Dunlop SP Sport FM800 and it was amazing!
The dry and wet grip is great and the Straight Aqua is way batter then other tires.
The downside is the wear, I drive around 50,000 KM per year and it last less than 2 years.

Given 84% while driving a Mazda 121 (225/55 R17) on mostly town for 7,000 average miles
FM800 wasn’t official model that is brought in by DUNLOP AD in Singapore. It is made in Thailand, however the price is very competitive against big name like Michelin / Goodyear and even other official Dunlop models. My previous tyre were Bridgestone T005A that was fitted on my car that come with dealer. FM800 performance was better than T005A in most of the aspect especially over Comfort, low noise and decent grip in dry / wet.

Given 86% while driving a Ford Fiesta (195/50 R15) on a combination of roads for 70 spirited miles
I have a ford fiesta ecoboost and do spirited driving daily in South Africa. These tyres have lasted me easily over 60 000km. They are strong and deal with potholes with no issue. Grip is substantial in dry but I don't feel as confident in the wet. All in all I would definitely buy again for the price!

Given 86% while driving a Toyota Corolla (185/60 R14) on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
Really great semi-performance tyres. I put these on my '90s hot hatch daily. A AE92 Toyota Corolla FX GT. The dry and wet grip are excellent. Driving feel is good but not excellent. No squeal when pushed hard and very predictable tyres. These would be great on a semi performance car. I do hard launches and push my car on a daily bases. Haven't lost grip once. Stopping is also very good, tyres have great stopping power and don't lose grip and lock up. Would 100% recommend and definitely would buy again.

Just changed to this tyres.So can't comment on the wear The first thing i notice was the silence . This tyres are so quiet i have to tune my music down 2 volume now. Grip is excellent too, comfort is superby. I got this tyres for $80/SGD each and i am really amazed this mid-budget tyre perform like high end if not even better ones. Definitely going to stick with this if its still avaliable or other Dunlop tyres in future.
