Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. is pleased to announce that our high-performance DUNLOP "SP SPORT MAXX A1 A/S DSST CTT" runflat tires have been adopted as factory standard tires on the new North American model LS, which was released by LEXUS last year.

Thanks to the adoption of cutting-edge runflat tire technology, our DUNLOP "SP SPORT MAXX 050 DSST CTT" tires achieve exceptional safety performance while at the same time providing the superior maneuverability and refined riding comfort that one would expect from the LS.

  [Runflat Tires]
  Runflat tires are tires that can continue running at a designated speed for a certain distance* even when completely flat (i.e. when internal air pressure is zero). These tires not only contribute to improved safety, but also save resources and reduce overall vehicle weight by eliminating the need for spare tires.
  *The speed and running distance requirements of runflat tires vary from vehicle to vehicle.
