ERJ staff report (BC)
Akron, Ohio - Dunlop Tires has announced that Mazda's newly redesigned 2014 Mazda6 sport sedan will be riding on Dunlop SP Sport 5000 tires when the vehicle goes on sale early next year.
The car will use an exclusive 19in fitment of the tire in size P225/45R19.
An asymmetrical tread pattern on the SP Sport 5000 is claimed to enhance both dry and wet handling, with a high-performance tread compound enhanced grip and control in a range of driving conditions. Jointless Band Technology is said to maintain the tire's shape for smooth performance at highway speeds.
