How to take your performance car to the next level

9th August 2023

Are you getting the most out of your performance car? The answer may lie in your tyres.

Ensuring you have the right tyres for your vehicle is essential to achieving optimum handling, braking, cornering and control on the road.

Our Protoura Sport ultra high performance tyre range is designed to be at one with the driver, so you can feel confident behind the wheel.

Benefits of Protoura Sport

  • The maximised contact patch provides high-speed stability and assured on-centre steering response, thanks to its solid continuous centre rib which transfers cornering forces to the tyre structure and maximises contact with the road.
  • Hydro-dynamic dimples optimise water flow, reducing drag and increasing water evacuation, helping to prevent aquaplaning.
  • Ribbed and serrated block edges bite into the road, providing focused braking force.
  • Stringent testing across 5 independent testing organisations, 15 different testing disciplines and 85km of testing terrain ensures that Protoura Sport is both unique in its sports performance and professional in its technical capabilities.

Protoura Sport DSP Runflat

You can also enjoy all of the benefits of Protoura Sport, now in a runflat tyre. The Protoura Sport DSP Runflat has been designed for passenger cars that require runflat tyres, but also ultra high performance features. Drivers can now enjoy performance without compromise, and peace of mind knowing that should a puncture occur, they can continue travelling to safety.

  • This is achieved due to:
    A self-supporting internal sidewall that supports the weight of the vehicle and retains the structure of the tyre when it loses air, allowing drivers to travel at restricted speeds of up to 50mph for up to 50 miles, to reach a place of repair.
    Integrated rim protection which prevents wheel damage
    Lateral and transverse load support when operating at zero inflation pressure

The Protoura Sport DSP Runflat has also been tested to vehicle manufacturer Original Equipment (OE) standards, meaning we have gone beyond the standard runflat testing requirements. Discover more about the testing disciplines carried out here.
