Description:
A premium tyre that meets the day-to-day performance needs of your family car and delivers confident handling in wet conditions. Chosen as as original equipment on Ford XR8/XR6 for its impressive comfort and quality. Fitted as OE to the head turning Rover 75. Developed for the discerning performance saloon car driver, the SP SPORT 3000 represents the pinnacle of non-directional tyre design. A new asymetric pattern tyre for the latest breed of high performance luxury cars. Imagine a tyre on the road. Imagine suspension geometry changing with acceleration, braking, cornering, each half of the tyre being pounded by different loads and forces as it grips in all weathers.
The everyday life of a performance tyre. Dunlop SP SPORT 3000A has two tread patterns across its width. Each designed to deal with the differences in life on the inside and the outside. Open shoulder with tread channels directed outwards to clear water faster. Superb aquaplaning resistance. Closed, broad shoulder with stabilised pattern blocks puts more rubber on the road. Precise handling, wet or dry. More even wear across the tread giving greater durability. Precise steering. Unique pattern configuration and casing construction. Class leading standards of ride comfort, quietness and refinement: Quieter in the environment through significant reductions in pass by noise: Great looks on the car. Lower rolling resistance construction. Saves fuel.
Technology (Features):
- Silica tread compound giving grip and poise in wet or dry conditions.
- Wide channelled tread design giving aquaplaning security and precise handling.
- Designed for quietness, comfort and serenity in the cruise.
- Rim protection that protects expensive alloys from kerbing.
- Run on flat
Consumer benefits:
- More fuel efficient.
- Longer tread life.
- High aquaplaning resistance.
EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher.

* when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note:
Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).*

Please note:
Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A
The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016.
B
The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016.
C
The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
