Dunlop 10037342 Winter Maxx SJ8 275/65R18 116R Studless Winter Tire Black Sidewall

The Dunlop Winter Maxx SJ8 is a dedicated winter tire engineered specifically for light trucks, SUVs, and CUVs that demand confident traction on snow and ice. Built around a suite of proprietary cold-weather technologies, the SJ8 delivers controlled, capable performance when temperatures drop and conditions deteriorate.

Key Features:

• Nano-Fit Rubber Compound: Dunlop's advanced tread compound balances flexibility and rigidity at low temperatures, allowing the tread surface to conform closely to icy road surfaces for improved adhesion and grip.
• Maxx Sharp Edge with Miura-Ori Sipes: High-density micro-sipes featuring the Miura-Ori folding pattern increase the number of biting edges in contact with snow and ice, while also helping counteract shoulder block deformation to maximize the tread's contact patch on icy surfaces.
• Optimized Groove Pattern: Wide grooves are strategically arranged to channel water and slush away from the contact patch, improving grip on snowy surfaces and enhancing hydroplaning resistance in wet winter conditions.
• Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) Certified: This tire meets or exceeds the industry-standard performance criteria for use in severe snow conditions, giving drivers added confidence in harsh winter weather.
• Directional Tread Design: Promotes stability and consistent handling during winter driving.
