Continental Tyre PJ Malaysia Sdn Bhd (CTPJ) has just launched its two latest passenger car tires – Dunlop Formula D05 and Dunlop SP Sport J5. Both the Dunlop new lines are 100% engineered with German Technology, and designed with Malaysia road conditions in mind.
The wiper blocks designed on Dunlop Formula D05 increases the road contact area. The Edge-Effect reduces the water-film between tire and road edges which act as a wiper, ensuring excellent braking performance on wet road. Its advanced Silica Compound Technology accommodates wider range of operating temperature compared to the predecessor, Dunlop Formula D01. Enhanced grip tread compound also achieves better traction on wet condition. The four equally distributed wide longitudinal grooves on the tyre accelerate water evacuation and equalize water dispersion rate. Leaving no water on the surface of contact area, delivers the best grip of tires to the road surface.
Dunlop SP Sport J5 was developed with new generation of full silica compound results in very high wet grip and improved rolling resistance. With this feature, drivers can enjoy maximum driving pleasure and fuel economy, without compromising safety. The new edge tie-bar designed on Dunlop SP Sport J5 working with water dam mechanism creates high velocity water dispersing, delivers the best grip to the road surface. On top of that, optimized number of sipes and grooves on the tyre also enhance water wiping effect while maintaining large contact area, ensuring excellent braking performance on wet road.
The new and attractive features on both tires are – Dry and wet season indicator, the first to be available in Malaysia, shows clearly when to change your tires for best optimum wet performances. It reduces the hassle to check the remaining tread depth of tyres.
The Dunlop Formula D05 line has 28 articles ranging from 15” to 18” is targeted for performance vehicle, while the SP Sport J5 which has 17 articles ranging from 12” – 15” is the comfort tyre. These 2 tires will be made easily available all over Malaysia in Continental Best Drive, Continental Stores, Dunlop Klinikar, and Viking Stores.
