The Dunlop SP Sport Maxx RT2 is a ultra-high-performance tyre that offers solid performances, particularly in wet conditions. Tests have shown its high aquaplaning resistance and exceptional comfort. However, it was also found to have a slightly delayed steering response on dry roads. Ranked 7th in the Autobild test amongst 52 tyres, it demonstrates its competency against a wide range of competitors. Autobild also regarded its dry braking distances as short and its comfort as good, although they noted that the steering on dry surfaces could be more responsive. This model hasn't been replaced and you can find more details about it on Dunlop's page.
On the other hand, the Sava Intensa UHP 2, successor of Sava Intensa UHP, presents with a good price-value ratio and impressive longitudinal aquaplaning resistance. Ranking 11th in the Autobild test, its highlights were the comfortable noise level and price-value ratio. However, it showed some understeer in both wet and dry handling and lower aquaplaning reserves. You can find more about this tyre on Sava's page.
In summary, the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 performs remarkably well in aquaplaning scenarios and offers good comfort levels. Its minor weakness, according to some tests, is its steering response on dry surfaces. On the other hand, the Sava Intensa UHP 2 also excels in aquaplaning resistance but might not be perfect when it comes to handling. Its great advantage is its price-value ratio. These pieces of information will assist potential buyers in making informed choices.
