Uniroyal Rallye 550

Fitted them back in 2001 and since then i go with them (only yesterday i changed to RainExpert). Tyres have very good grip, in dry equal to other good brands, in wet far better than any other. They are very quiet and comfy due to their soft sidewall. They give a good feedback and they get warm pretty fast and give very good braking. I am very pleased with them

Ps. Intended for some 'evaluators'. Evaluating a tyre while fitting only two tyres instead of a set, is at least dumb

Had 2 of these fitted to front end with 2 part worn Dunlops at rear, I had all on keeping the car in a straight line on the motorway, it felt as though the tyres were only half inflated, they weren't. Back to the garage to have everything checked all was OK. I tolerated this for about 4k to see if they would bed in but no change so I swapped them to the rear still the same feeling. I put them back on the front and just wore them out as fast as possible. Had 4 Toyo Proxes CF1 fitted and it was such a relief to have the car drive in a straight line again without constant correction, wear looks to be heading for about 25-28k for the Toyo's

If you have a Golf Tdi 130 Estate do NOT have these tyres.

i put two 550 uniroyal tyers on the front of this car drove it on wet west of ireland roads during summer. i push this car all the time great tyres for the front of this model. i now have put them on the back and two new ones one the front, car very quiet and responsive i trust these tyres at speeds, i wont mention. overall great value.

The Rallye 550 gives confident wet weather grip for both cornering and braking. I believe the feedback is a little bit vague on twisty B roads but a quiet drive is experienced on motorways.
The dry grip is decent but the rubber is a little bit soft resulting in below average tyre wear. However I can live with this trade-off as the overall package is good.
Price is another good point allowing me to purchase for slightly under ?50 fully fitted.
