I had UniRoyal RainExperts fitted to my classic Scirocco and loved them so much I went with the RainSports for my daily driver. They are outstanding in wet weather. You can dive into wet roundabouts and the car just turns, whereas my previous Falkens would understeer heavily if you pushed them even slightly. Amazing tyres for the money.

Wet grip is excellent as expected car ploughs through standing water with ease and feels safe. Dry grip is good aswell not had any problems with the tyres at all. As for wear i will have to wait and see but perfect tyre for the scottish climate which is mainly wet.

I love them. Compared to the worn and slightly cheaper Pirelli they replaced, the car feels more planted. Really, really like these tyres. They’re the right price for me and the performance is great.
