Let's take a closer look at two summer tyres - the Dunlop Sport BluResponse and the Nexen N blue HD plus - and compare their performance in tests, strengths, and weaknesses. Both tyres are manufactured by well-known companies: Dunlop and Nexen, respectively.
Dunlop Sport BluResponse is an 85%-rated summer tyre suitable for a wide range of vehicles. The tyre has not been replaced by a newer model and is still available in the market. Its strengths lie in its excellent wet grip, low rolling resistance, and good wear characteristics. However, the tyre does have some weaknesses, such as slightly higher noise levels and average dry handling.
In the Autobild test, the Dunlop Sport BluResponse ranked 6th out of 50 tested tyres, with its best features being comfort and wet grip. In the ADAC test, the tyre achieved 3rd place out of 16 tested tyres, proving it to be a strong contender in the summer tyre market.
On the other hand, the Nexen N blue HD plus is a 70%-rated summer tyre made in South Korea. This tyre also has not been replaced by a newer model and remains available for purchase. The Nexen N blue HD plus offers good comfort and low noise levels, but it does have some areas that could be improved, such as average wet and dry grip, and average wear.
In the same Autobild test, the Nexen N blue HD plus ranked 12th out of 50 tyres, with its best features being comfort and wet grip. However, in the ADAC test, the tyre only achieved 13th place out of 16 tested tyres, indicating that it may not be as competitive as the Dunlop Sport BluResponse in terms of overall performance.
Verdict:
Based on the test results and ratings, the Dunlop Sport BluResponse is the better tyre overall, with a higher rating of 85%, compared to the Nexen N blue HD plus rating of 70%. The Dunlop tyre also ranked higher in both Autobild and ADAC tests, indicating its superior performance and consistency over the Nexen tyre.
In summary, if you are looking for a summer tyre with excellent wet grip, low rolling resistance, and good wear characteristics, the Dunlop Sport BluResponse is the better choice. However, if comfort and low noise levels are your priority, the Nexen N blue HD plus could be a suitable option. Ultimately, the best tyre for you will depend on your individual needs and preferences.
