Dunlop SP WinterSport 4D Reviews

Really good tyres. I have driven up snow covered hills with ease in my A4 and passed mid range saloons stuck at the bottom. They are on smaller, steel wheels than my summer alloys (which seems normal practice, if you have space to store the other set) and they give a secure, quiet, economical and very comfortable ride. First few miles were noisy, but this quickly passed. If you push it hard round tight bends the grip is good, but not as good as the wider summer types, but that is only to be expected.

I decided to buy these tyres after reading various reviews and I am not disappointed.
Grip in both wet and dry conditions is excellent and general feel is superb. Only managed to use them in light snow this winter and I can say I definately noticed higher levels of traction than I am used to. Early days but wear rate seems good too.
All in all a very good winter choice.

Brilliant, lots of driving on continent means these tyres are really needed. Having used conti's and Pirelli before these are the best used.

Shod my Skoda Superb with the Dunlop 4D 205/55/r16 and i would say i am impressed by the road feedback and rolling resistance, had continental winter sport before but would say they are exqually good. I am in the break in period would recommend others on. waiting for the snow to fall here in Poland will report when it does.

Just purchased a set of these tyres, and all I can say is that they're simply amazing.
The car was rendered useless when the snow fell last year, until I invested in a pair of snow socks. Car can now be driven up snow/ice covered hills etc. with ease.

Very good in the wet we've had recently. Not actually been too bad on the usually hot days either.
Not tried these on snow yet but can't wait!
