Dunlop's long-standing reputation in the field of sports tires brings with the new Dunlop Qualifier Core what matters most to Hypersport tyres: dynamic handling, excellent grip on dry and wet roads.

Modern technology and innovative manufacturing methods allow customers to experience the best performance at a great price that until now has only been reserved for top racing tyres.

HCT technology helps the tough floor deliver superior performance.

The rubber cross section and mold shape were developed using a DFF formula that ensures excellent workability.

The design inspired by the first generation SportSmart tire offers balanced tread stiffness, even tire wear and excellent handling on dry and wet surfaces.

The qualifier CORE has proven technologies that are already used in Dunlop's premium hypersport tires SportSmart TT and SportSmart Mk3. The "Dynamic Front Formula" technology gives the Qualifier CORE a very handy and precise front tire construction. The well-established "Jointless Belt" construction is used on the rear tire, which ensures excellent high-speed stability and provides precise feedback to the pilot at all times. The technologies used are supplemented by a silica rubber compound of the latest generation, with which sports drivers can drive safely even on cold and wet roads.

The tread design is inspired by the Dunlop Sportmax SportSmart - the very first SportSmart generation. The profile grooves as well as the tire contour were adjusted with the aim of increasing the tread stiffness and the contact area and reducing rubber abrasion. Compared to the Qualifier II, which the Qualifier CORE replaces, the wet performance has also been increased. This was achieved by adjusting the profile groove angle. Last but not least, the heat control technology used, which combines an upper rubber compound (cap) with a lower compound (base), ensures a good balance between high performance and convincing mileage.
