The tyre's real value for money
Lowest price in size 225/40 R18 divided by the estimated mileage from tests and reviews.
Technical information
Focus: Sport
With sport tyres, grip in every situation is what decides — under hard acceleration, under braking, in the dry and in the wet. Dunlop SPORT MAXX RT 2 belongs to this group. Stability at higher speeds and precision through corners come on top of that. One thing drivers often underestimate when buying: grip comes from a softer compound, and a softer compound wears faster. Where a standard tyre covers roughly 40,000 km, a sport tyre manages about 20,000 to 30,000 km — and considerably less with a sharper driving style or a heavier, more powerful car.

What owners say
garbage. no grip at dry, no grip at wet. probably good for a person who doesnt do "spirited" driving, or has less than 200hp. also even if has under 200hp, they do not stick to the ground very well at tighter turns. not recommending them.
A mixed bag these ones. I'll start with the positives:
Survived two mixed weather track days. Although conditions meant pushing hard was never an option, most road tyres show some shoulder wear in track conditions, but these held up well. In Cold / Greasy conditions, they clearly performed better than the same car on semi-slicks and the handling was predictable, consistent and controllable. Oversteer was progressive and correctable.
Next, in very very very heavy rain conditions on the motorway (and I mean, can't even see the car in front kinda wet), they performed very well. Very little if any aquaplaning, resistance to it was good. Felt calm and steady over standing water and in damp conditions it felt like the tyre was keyed into the road.
Lastly, country road driving in damp / changeable conditoins, also excellent, very reliable grip, even when pressing on.
So what about the downsides... well, theres a few:
1) very odd steering characteristics off centre and on / off throttle. The car changes direction slightly on and off throttle, a behaviour I've only seen when tyres were different brands, or one was hugely over / under inflated. It suggests that all four tyres may not be perfectly the same dimensionally. It lends an oddly floaty feeling just off centre when driving on roads.
2) very very very firm. For a road tyre, the carcass stiffness is significant. These are actually about as stiff as a set of Nankang AR1 track tyres, and significantly harder than the likes of a classic P zero. For a road tyre this makes it quite uncomfortable. It certainly feels "sporty" but over all but perfect roads, its quite uncomfortable.
3) I have no data yet on how these will perform under hard driving in dry conditions, so will need to report back once I've had a chance to do so.
Without a doubt, after so many years of fitting all kinds of brands, this is the worst purchase ever made. Two of the four tyres are deformed, since they were new. The brand does not respond and neither does the workshop. Both produce parasitic movements. When driving, the sensations at the wheel are of turning the steering wheel, the tyre twisting, leaning and starting to turn. In a storm, any boat at sea has less movement than these tyres. It is awful. Of course, they grip well both in dry and wet conditions, but what it conveys is that you are driving a van tyre. I would not buy it again, nor would I accept it as a gift. In itself, nothing from the Goodyear company will be fitted in my cars/motorbikes in the future.
I've had several sets of these on my car now as they have proven to be reliable and confidence inspiring in the wet. They've survived pot holes, debris, and the odd curb. I've never found myself wishing for more grip in the dry. The response is perhaps slightly muted compared to more expensive tyres, but personally don't have an issue as my driving is 90% motorway/major A roads.
In the wet the car feels stable in the rain at motorway speeds up until about 3mm tread depth, at which point the front started to feel nervous. Braking has been fine in the wet but pulling away briskly in anything other than a straight line will set off the traction control. Hard to say if this would be reduced with a more expensive tyre.
Front tyres have lasted about 11k miles before reaching the wear line after. Rears are over 20k and still have a while to go.
Just replaced 2 fronts at 40k miles with 2mm remaining. A very good tyre that has served the car well in all weather conditions including torrential rain and at all UK legal speeds. I have not experienced any loss of grip when pushed hard and only a slight degree of vagueness in spirited cornering. A quiet riding tyre at speed but which does not soak up bumps at low speed. Was tempted replace with the same but instead opted for Continental Premium Contact 7 due to good reviews.
