The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT 600 is an extreme performance summer tire released in 2010, specifically engineered for powerful sports sedans and coupes meeting the high demands of vehicles like the Nissan GT-R and Nissan 370Z requiring exceptional performance capabilities. This tire incorporates Dunlop's proprietary NanoCell compound technology delivering superior traction, combined with asymmetric directional tread pattern featuring four longitudinal ribs balancing performance characteristics across various driving demands. The rigid longitudinal rib positioned in the center provides exceptional directional stability and clear feedback to drivers during aggressive driving, while large outer shoulder blocks improve lateral stability during high-speed cornering. Available in V (149 mph) and Z (over 149 mph) speed ratings, the SP Sport Maxx GT 600 targets owners of premium performance vehicles demanding ultimate summer capabilities.
The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT 600 delivers exceptional control across all weather conditions with high-speed stability maintaining composure even at top speeds, while central grooves efficiently channel water away from the tread reducing hydroplaning risk during wet conditions. Dunlop backs the tire with 6-year warranty from date of production including free replacement for first 2/32 inch of wear, then prorated coverage until 2/32 inch remaining tread depth. A DSST (run-flat) version was introduced in 2011 specifically engineered for Nissan GT-R applications, providing extended mobility capabilities following air pressure loss. Many sizes within this line have been discontinued as Dunlop has introduced newer generation extreme performance alternatives, with the tire not receiving sufficient consumer feedback for comprehensive ratings. The SP Sport Maxx GT 600 served owners of flagship performance vehicles seeking OE-quality replacement tires maintaining the extreme capabilities and precise handling characteristics engineered specifically for high-performance applications demanding ultimate summer grip and high-speed stability.
