Dunlop Tires opened its first plant in Dublin (Ireland) in 1889. Its first product arose when John Dunlop watched his son try to ride a tricycle with solid rubber wheels over cobblestones. John Dunlop wrapped the wheels in rubber sheets, then pumped air inside with a soccer ball pump for cushioning – and the pneumatic tire was born (later patented by Dunlop). By the 1920s, Dunlop had developed car tires capable of speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour. This lead to Dunlop Tires’ decades-long involvement in producing ultra high performance tires used primarily for racing applications. Since then, Dunlop Tires has grown to become one of the world’s biggest and most respected tire brands. Goodyear and Sumitomo Tire Company have jointly owned Dunlop Tires since 1999.
From the world of racing to the everyday road, Dunlop Tires is committed to defining the performance in high-performance tires. Their motorsport success is the DNA of every tire they produce. What they learn on the track, they apply to the road. Whether your interest is in Dunlop’s passenger, light truck, SUV, performance, or sport compact tires, Dunlop is about driving.
