Cyberspace, UK - website tyrereviews has published its subjective review of a couple of new sport tyres. In a review titled 2012 Subjective Shootout - Battle of the heavyweights, the website gives subjective opinions of two new tyres; the Continental Sport Contact 5s, and the Dunlop SportMaxx RT, all in 245/40 R18.
The review says, “Both tyres proved to be excellent in the wet and the dry, and while one tyre (the Dunlop) has "won" this mini shoot out, it was so close things could easily be reversed in a different tyre size, or on a different vehicle. In short, you wouldn't be disappointed with either tyre.
The site has also posted the Auto Bild braking test of 50 tyres on its front page.
