DUNLOP SP SPORT MAXX GT600A Selected as Factory Standard Tires for SUBARU TECNICA INTERNATIONAL's New S209

Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. is pleased to announce that we have begun supplying our high-performance DUNLOP SP SPORT MAXX GT600A tires to SUBARU TECNICA INTERNATIONAL (STI) for use as factory standard tires on their new S209, which STI first unveiled at the 2019 North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January and now plans to release as a limited-edition model for the North American market.

The first model in the S Series built specifically for the North American market, the S209 is a high-performance car based on SUBARU's WRX STI, but with a specially designed engine and suspension and also featuring exclusive interior and exterior accoutrements. Developed exclusively for the S209, our DUNLOP SP SPORT MAXX GT600A tires are the culmination of the advanced technical prowess that we have developed through years of active collaboration with STI in the 24 Hours Nürburgring, SUPER GT racing and various other motorsports activities. Thanks to the adoption of a specialized structure and proprietary rubber compounds, our DUNLOP SP SPORT MAXX GT600A tires provide enhanced steering stability and grip performance to help the S209 achieve "True Speed" that the driver can harness at will.
