The new Dunlop SP VAN01 tyre

A brand new tyre range has been released by a favourite tyre brand in the country, Dunlop. The new Dunlop SP VAN01 is dubbed as the tyre that gives businesses more. It is a working tyre for commercial vehicles such as trucks, bakkies and panel vans. Top of the feature is mileage, which is really the main aspect of a tyre that any business should look for.

Tyres generally do not get the recognition they deserve with motorists and businesses alike, despite being the main contact point between the vehicle and the road. Anything that affects the tyres, negative or positive, directly affects the vehicle they are attached to. The SP VAN01 is designed to be wide and flat in order to maximise road contact, which assists with traction and therefore safer driving.

Sidewall protection is a highlight for the SP VAN01. Kerb protection is reinforced by the optimally placed band which then ensures durability, especially on rough roads. The central rib gives even wear distribution, and also improves the vehicle’s directional stability, braking distances and driving dynamics. The deep grooves improve durability and wet grip performance. There is a stronger steel wire structure that enhances load-bearing performance and tyre rigidity. Overall safety is improved.
The new SP VAN01 tyres come in 12 models (two of which are launching in March 2022), with sizes varying from 12 to 16-inches in diameter. They are suitable for a range of vehicles, from Opel Cora Utility, Hyundai H100, to Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Volkswagen Crafter, depending on the application.
