Nissan GT-R chooses Dunlop for extreme performance

The Nissan GT-R, the fastest and most powerful Nissan ever, will be delivered to the European markets on Dunlop SP Sport 600 DSST ultra high performance tyres with RunOnFlat technology in the sizes 255/40 ZRF20 (front axle) and 285/35 ZRF20 (rear axle).

Nissan’s new super sports car GT-R with a 3,8-litre twin-turbocharged V6 engine and 480 horsepower delivers a torque of 588 Newton meter and propels the car in 3,6 seconds to 100 km/h.

Nissan's  GT-R,  7''record on the  Nürburgring Nordschleife, one of the world’s most challenging race tracks, achived by Toshio Suzuki, Nissan test driver and championship winning race driver, has shown how important the right tyre choice is and how the Dunlop tyres contribute to its performance.

Tyres are one of the most important contributors to the performance of a car. This is especially true for cars with this enormous power. Dunlop tyres are developed to deliver outstanding road feedback which clearly makes the difference for the Nissan GT-R.
