Comparison: Dunlop Sport BluResponse vs. Firestone Roadhawk vs. Hankook Ventus Prime 4 vs. Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 vs. Bridgestone Turanza 6

1 mutual test(s) with detailed data


Let's compare two summer tyres: the Dunlop Sport BluResponse and the Firestone Roadhawk. Both tyres have lots to offer, but there are some important differences to note, too.


The Dunlop Sport BluResponse tyre received an impressive rating of 83% from us, highlighting its high quality and reliability. It excelled in tests conducted by Autobild and ADAC, placing 8th and 5th respectively out of numerous competitors. Notable strengths of the Dunlop Sport BluResponse are its comfort and rolling resistances, but it struggles a bit with a slight weakness on wet surfaces. Despite this, it has good dry road performance and efficiency. Weaknesses pointed out in the Autobild 2024 test highlight slight unbalance and lower mileage, which may affect the tyre's environmental footprint.


On the other hand, we have the Firestone Roadhawk by Firestone which has also proven to be a reliable tyre. It received a rating of 72% from us, making it a worthy option too. In comparison tests, the Roadhawk surprisingly outperformed the Sport BluResponse in Autobild's test, clinching the 3rd position. However, it fell behind in ADAC's test where it ranked 9th. The Roadhawk excels in dry handling and wet-road performance, but falls a bit short in the balance department, showing a weaker performance on wet surfaces the same as Dunlop. However, it offers an efficient and lightweight ride, with less wear and tear.


In mutual positions, the Dunlop Sport BluResponse has overall performed better in the tests mentioned. Although the Firestone Roadhawk has held its own, it lacks the consistency across different testing areas that the Dunlop tyre exhibits.


Ultimately, both the Dunlop's Sport BluResponse and Firestone's Roadhawk offer unique strengths. The Sport BluResponse comes out on top if you're looking for a more balanced tyre with good rolling resistance and comfort, whereas the Firestone Roadhawk takes the lead in dry handling and offers less wear over time. You should carefully consider these factors when choosing the right tyre for your vehicle.
