Tire: SP Winter Response
Category: Studless Ice & Snow
UTQG (treadwear): Not rated
The Dunlop SP Winter Response is a small volume winter tire that was developed to provide winter traction in ice and snow. Currently, it is only sold in a single 14" wheel size, so if you see any other size on the market, be thinking to yourself that this tire dealer is probably trying to clean out the closet. I haven't come across one person running this tire, so I only have a few second hand reports. From what I can gather, this tire is at the low end of the spectrum when it comes to winter traction. Dunlop overall has a good reputation for manufacturing winter tires, so I wouldn't say these tires will let you down. I would however mention that there are plenty of other, better reviewed, and more often used (good in case you need to buy one due to a puncture) tires on the market. So I'd say it would be worth it to skip this tire and look elsewhere in the Dunlop lineup.
