Description

🇩🇪 Dunlop SP Sport Maxx Race 2 (245/35ZR20 95Y N2 XL MFS EU DOT23)

“The Precision Instrument.” Engineered for Porsche GT Performance.

The Race 2 is not just a high-performance tyre; it is a “Streetable Track & Competition” tyre. It was developed alongside the Michelin Cup 2 to provide Porsche owners with a choice that offers slightly different steering feedback and dry-grip characteristics, focused on repeatable lap times and high G-force stability.

✨ Key Technical Features

• 🏎️ Motorsport-Derived Compound:

  Utilizing race-grade polymers and a high-dispersion silica, the Race 2 is designed to reach its operating temperature quickly. It offers immense dry grip and aggressive braking stability that remains consistent across multiple hard laps at Sepang.

• 📐 Hybrid Aramid Top Layer:

  The internal casing includes a hybrid layer containing Aramid. This prevents the tyre from “ballooning” under the centrifugal forces of high speed, maintaining a flat, optimized contact patch even at 300 km/h.

• 💪 Reinforced Lateral Stiffness:

  The N2 specification features reinforced sidewalls to manage the aggressive turn-in and high lateral loads typical of Porsche GT cars. This results in razor-sharp steering response and high-speed cornering confidence.

• 🔇 Specialized Block Stability:

  The tread blocks are designed to resist bending under heavy load. This ensures the tyre doesn’t “smear” during aggressive cornering, providing more precise feedback to the driver through the steering wheel.

• 🛡️ MFS (Maximum Flange Shield):

  A raised rubber profile protects the outer edge of your expensive 20-inch Porsche center-lock or lightweight alloy wheels from curb rash and track debris.

📊 Performance Summary

• Dry Track Grip: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Elite semi-slick performance)

• Steering Precision: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Telepathic communication)

• Wet Safety: ⭐⭐ (Extreme caution required in heavy rain/standing water)

• Lifespan: ⭐ (Soft 80-treadwear compound; expect 5,000–10,000 km)

The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx Race 2 N2 is the definitive “track-day” choice for 2026. It is the best option for your Porsche if you prioritize absolute dry-road precision and want the exact performance balance intended by Porsche Motorsport engineers.
