Dunlop SP Sport 01 Owner Reviews

What owners say summarised from 97 reviews

The Dunlop SP Sport 01 receives its clearest owner praise for dry grip, handling and tread life, with later-life accounts including substantial mileage. Wear is not universally liked, but favorable mentions outnumber complaints by more than two to one. Road noise is the main recurring drawback, criticised in nearly three in ten reviews, and some end-of-life accounts describe it becoming louder. Wet grip is evenly divided between positive and negative mentions, so it is less dependable as a point of recommendation than dry performance. Ride comfort is also split, while steering feedback leans positive without the same agreement as dry handling.

Replaced my fronts with these, they were reasonable but haven't lasted as long as I expected. Grip is good in both wet & dry, but they were difficult to balance so got a lot of vibration & noise from them. For a cheaper tire they're OK, but I'll pay more for the replacements & get something better that will last a bit longer.
