**Please use the tire corresponding model on the publication as a reference. There are cases that it may differ from the actual mounting size. There are cases that it may vary in size depending on minor change and model, special specification vehicle and custom situation, even if the model name, displacement and year are the same. Please be sure to check the tube, size, speed symbol, load index, tire type of the tire that is actually mounted, and select size and pattern at your own risk.
*Please check with the arrow of the tread shoulder part, side wall part for the presence or absence of rotation direction.
*The product will only be the tire of the product name.

SPORTMAX Q5 is the only product in DUNLOP's product lineup except for Race,
It is the successor to the SPORTMAX Q4, the most grippy model on the market..

[History of QSeries - Trajectory]
Chronological chart of the SPORTSMAX QSeries since 2005
2005:QUALIFIER was born as a global model in Japan, the U.S., and Europe based on the common concept of "incorporating RaceTire into the street.
2009:Series as "SportsTire" with "Q" as the initial.
2013:Normal evolution as a Series, enhancing basic performance
2017:Launch of the derivative MODEL "Q3+" with enhanced IF performance
2019:Q4 specializes in Circuit performance with the creation of the raw MODEL Q3+.. Highly acclaimed in the U.S., the product was launched in Japan as well.
2022:SPORTMAX Q5" will be presented at Tokyo Motorcycle Show!

[Evolved performance]
As with the previous SPORTMAX Q4, the new model maintains the same performance on public roads,
SPORTMAX Q5 further enhances Potential at Circuit.
Powerful grips and fee rings shorten lap time while still being able to be driven on public roads..

01 Compound (for Race Particulate Carbon)
Increased carbon black content from conventional products enhances dry grip..
The smallest for-race carbon particles have a smaller particle size than normal carbon particles, which increases entanglement with the polymer and improves heat generation efficiency, resulting in superior gripping power..
In addition, the warm-up property has been improved by making the compound more flexible by changing and adjusting the polymer and other original compositions..

For Race Particulate Carbon
Smaller particle size than normal fine carbon particles increases entanglement with the polymer and improves heat generation efficiency..
Better Grip force.

Comparison of fine-particle Carbon and for Race fine-particle Carbon

02 Profile(IRP)
New Model Profile provides more ground clearance when banking, which contributes to a rich ground feel and increased grip..

Comparison of old and new profiles
The new profile with a larger center outer diameter and reduced rigidity improves the sense of ground contact and realizes stable handling and cornering..
The unique profile design with IRP (Intuitive Response Profile) enables aggressive driving by sloping the Edge of the Tread..

Rigidity Comparison
Reduces longitudinal stiffness, making it easier to break the tire and improve ground contact..
The profile with increased outer diameter provides a rich ground feel and stable handling.. More stable coner rings.

Edge Ground Pressure Comparison
Increased ground contact area at full bank and optimized ground pressure distribution. Stable Grip at deep bank angles.

03 Structure (JLT Structure)
Front structure has been optimized to make tread rigidity more flexible, improving ground contact feel compared to conventional products..
The 2CUTBelt structure with CROSS Aramid cord layers provides quick turning response and high turning force..
Rear is made of JLT (Jointless Tread Structure), which continuously wraps Tread rubber..
In addition, the Belt structure made of lightweight Aramid material provides both high speed stability, high speed uniformity, and ground feel..

04 Pattern
Sophisticated design and pattern optimization ensure wet performance in the normal range

The groove is extended closer to the center than conventional products to improve drainage efficiency in the normal use range from the tread center to the middle bank..
Logo of the product is engraved on the tread edge..
The pattern design not only improves performance, but also takes care of every detail of the design..

Comments from ■testEngineer
Q4 was a great Tire, so I have to admit that I was a bit puzzled as to how to evolve it in the development of Q5..
The lap time in Q5 was improved by a large amount compared to Q4, mainly due to the new profile and front tire compounding..
Try Q5 on your current liter machine, it will shine on the circuit and on the street!.
With its new profile, more flexible compound, shorter warm-up time, and improved lap time and durability, the Q5 is a great tire for both circuits and open roads..
