Sporty driving on wet and dry roads. For ultra high performance cars.

The SportControl 2 is the improved UHP tire designed for sporty driving. Benefit from short braking distance on dry and excellent control on wet. You’ll also enjoy reduced fuel consumption.

  • Sporty driving capability on dry and wet roads
  • Optimized tread footprint for high mileage
  • German high technology at a great value for money

Short braking distance on dry

Braking when its needed. The advanced tread design allows for a balanced pressure distribution throughout the tread delivering optimized contact between the tire and the road.

Excellent control on wet.

Drive with confidence when it matters the most. Multiple AquaFlow grooves allow for efficient water evacuation while the engineered silica tread compound provides traction on wet roads.

Sporty driving on dry roads

Get the most from your ultra high performance car. The wide and stiff outside shoulders reduce tire tread deformation delivering better steering precision while cornering.

High mileage

The optimized tread footprint and cavity design (Black, Wide, Strong) allows for an even tread wear delivering high mileage.

Reduced fuel consumption

The low weight construction and engineered compound technology created for this tire control the energy loss allowing for cost saving over the tire’s lifetime.

EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes

The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.

The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.

The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm

The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance

fuel efficiency

The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).

If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher.
(Source: European Commission Impact Assessment
* when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)

Please note:
Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.

wet grip

Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).

If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).*

Please note:
Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.

External rolling noise

The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values ​​for external tire rolling noise.

A
The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016.
B
The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016.
C
The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.

I originally picked Fulda Sport Control 2 because they had the lowest noise rating of any tyre I could find in comparisons. Some other tyres have a low noise rating but quieter tyres are hard to find. Fulda are a German manufactured brand which puts them in a different league from the tyres made in 3rd world countries in terms of quality but they're also middle priced so you're getting a good tyre for a good price. I've now had these all round on 3 cars and driven them over many years and 10s of thousands of miles and unless something better comes along I'll be sticking with them for the moment. Aside from being quiet I can't fault them on grip and wear although if they were less grippy or faster wearing I'd be prepared to accept that in return for the quieter running. A lot of modern cars have wheels which are far too large and the Fulda Sport Control 2 helps to mitigate the noise created by wide low profile tyres making the car much nicer to drive.

It's a fine set of tyres. I don't push the car so can't really comment on its braking abilities and I haven't taken enough statistics to confirm any fuel efficiency differences from the manufacturer-provided tyres. However I can confirm that the moment I drove away from the garage with the new tyres, it was noticeably quieter, enough that some in my family noticed. Since buying the tyres the main roads to work have been torn up and the current temporary roads are really quite bad and will probably tear up the tyres far faster than normal roads would... who knows how bad the noise in the car would have been with the old ones.

A great performing tyre for the cost. Only area of concern is on damp roads and losing grip under hard acceleration (front wheel drive car, with lots of diesel torque). Very quiet compared to my last factory fitted Michelin.

Excellent tyre. Solid performance in wet and dry at high speed
