Engineered for adrenaline junkies who demand dual-purpose excellence, the Sportmax Q5 delivers championship-caliber grip while maintaining full DOT compliance for daily riding. Built on Dunlop’s 115-year racing heritage, this tire redefines street-track versatility with three breakthrough technologies:
1. Adaptive Response Architecture

– Self-adjusting tread pattern optimizes contact patch at 0° to 70° lean angles
2. Track-Tested Wet Performance
– 23% deeper tread grooves than Q4 generation with directional siping patterns
– Hydroplaning resistance verified at 85mph in ASTM-certified testing
3. Thermal Management System
– Operates efficiently at 140-160°F tire temps (no warmers needed)
– 15% faster heat dissipation compared to previous models
Expanded fitment includes 12 sizes (now covering 80% of sportbike models):
