In this comparison, we are focusing on the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 and the Semperit Speed-Life 3 summer tyres. Both these tyres are well-regarded within their respective categories, with the former being a high-performer in the 'ultra-high-performance' (UUHP) sector.


Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2


The Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 tyre, manufactured by Dunlop, promises commendable on-road performance. One of its most notable features is secure driving characteristics on wet surfaces. According to the ADAC and Autobild tests, its strong points include "Aquaplaning - cross", "Aquaplaning - longitudinal" and "Comfort". The tyre placed 6th and 7th out of 17 and 51 tyres, respectively in these tests. However, the tyre's weakness is delayed steering response on dry pavement.


From the data that we have gathered, the SP Sport MAXX RT2 garners an overall rating of 79%, commending it for its secure driving characteristics on wet surfaces, good aquaplaning qualities, and short dry braking distances.


Semperit Speed-Life 3


On the other hand, Semperit Speed-Life 3, a successor model to the Speed-Life model from Semperit, exhibits strong prowess particularly in the "mileage" and "Wet braking" categories. It earned a respectable 10th place out of 17 tyres in the ADAC test. Notably, this tyre gets high scores for handling on wet surfaces, very high mileage projection, low wear, and good efficiency. Nevertheless, its weak point is its driveability on dry surfaces. Overall, the tyre earns an average rating of 65%, appreciating it for best scores on wetness and wear while pointing out weaknesses on dry surfaces.


In summary, Dunlop SP Sport MAX Maxx RT2 clearly outperforms its Semperit counterpart when it comes to test performance and rating percentage. However, if mileage and efficiency are your priorities, the Semperit Speed-Life 3 still offers a great deal of value.
