Description

🇯🇵 Dunlop Grandtrek PT5 (235/55R19 101V JP)

“The Smooth Voyager.” 2026’s Benchmark for Stability and Quiet Comfort.

The PT5 succeeds the PT3, with a specific focus on suppressing the “vehicle wander” often felt in high-riding SUVs. By increasing the tread width and refining the contact patch, Dunlop has created a tyre that feels significantly more “planted” on the PIE and other expressways.

✨ Key 2026 Technical Features

• 🏎️ 12% Improved Steering Stability:

  The PT5 features a new profile design that increases the tread width, resulting in an 8% larger contact area than the PT3. This provides a more stable footprint, which effectively suppresses the tendency for SUVs to “drift” or wander at highway speeds.

• 🔇 Innovative Noise-Squelching Pattern:

  The tread adopts lateral grooves of varying widths to break up sound resonance. Additionally, the shoulder lug grooves are 30% narrower than its predecessor, which significantly reduces the amount of road noise escaping to the cabin.

• 📐 Rounded Contact Pressure:

  Unlike square-profile tyres, the PT5 utilizes a rounder contact patch. This helps distribute impact shocks more evenly from the center outward, resulting in a noticeably plusher ride over expansion joints and minor road imperfections.

• 🌧️ High-Silica Wet Traction:

  The rubber compound is enriched with advanced silica polymers that remain flexible in wet conditions. This ensures shorter wet braking distances and reliable grip during Singapore’s heavy tropical downpours.

• ⛽ Low Rolling Resistance:

  The refined compound and lighter internal structure help reduce energy loss during rotation, contributing to better fuel efficiency for large petrol and hybrid SUVs.

📊 Performance Summary

• Steering Stability: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Rock-solid for large SUVs)

• Road Noise: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Significant reduction in pattern noise)

• Ride Comfort: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Excellent shock absorption)

• Wet Safety: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Predictable and safe)

The Dunlop Grandtrek PT5 is the definitive “comfort-plus” choice for 2026. It is the best option for your Harrier, Lexus, or Sorento if you want a tyre that makes the vehicle feel more stable and quiet on the highway while maintaining a smooth, premium ride.
