"DUNLOP" (Company name: Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd.; President: Satoru Yamamoto) will release DUNLOP SP4 "SP4" sequentially from April 2026. This product is a reproduction model of the tire that was released in 1975, and the tread (ground surface) design was reconstructed as it was at that time, and the side design was reconstructed into a design that symbolizes classic cars. Available in all four sizes below, the price is open price."

Features of the Dunlop SP4
1. Based on the design of the model released in 1975, it is reprinted while referring to the patterns and designs of the time. We adopt a design that follows the original shape.
2. The shoulder design symbolized the 1970s, and the powerful carvings from the sides enhance the unique modeling beauty of classic cars.
3. The exterior is finished in a structure suitable for the current usage environment, keeping the atmosphere of the time as it is.
4. It is a design that adopts a modest imprint that suppresses the claim and highlights the original appearance of the vehicle.

That's google translate from Japanese, so it won't necessarily make sense
