Really low noise comfortable tyres. Great wet grip, decent feedback, long life and great value. I will buy these again. I think they have an attractive tread design too.

I recently bought Uniroyal tyres as my first ever winter tyres. It is the best purchase i have ever made and have felt the benefit of the extra grip and road handling in the wet and colder mornings. The give much better grip when braking and make the feel of driving much safer.

I am using P6000 on my cars for many many years without any problem and with good mileage. Roadholding is superb wet or dry with very little noise. I was allways prepared to pay a premium for these tyres. However the present set only lasted 23750 miles while the previous set lasted almost 30000 miles on the same car with the same driver and same conditions. I have had the tyres rotated and balanced every 6250 miles as recommended. Will I buy them again -maybe but not at a premium.

They appear to make the steering quite heavy. It can make shoulders ache after 150 miles.
Wear is poor. Very hard and feel all the bumps. After 11,000 miles fronts are 6.0 and 5.5 and rears 6.0 and 5.5
Very odd that rears have worn so badly. On previous A4 I got 3x the wear from the rears on Michelin Primacy 205/55/ZR16/91W
Must find a better alternative.

All I can really say is that the RainSport 2 is frighteningly good!
Why? Well a couple of weeks ago I had to drive down to Dorset from North Wiltshire in torrential rain and thought that the tyres weren't actually living up to their name when I hit some deep standing water - until I checked my speedo and backed right off...
The Rainsports allow you to drive as if the road were dry; they are exceptionally grippy and just don't want to let go of the road.
Combine this grip with low road noise and high levels of comfort and I think they could easily get you into trouble.
Obviously the comfort and noise levels come with a trade-off in feedback, however this doesn't detract from the overall performance of the tyre.
I can't comment on wear yet - my fuel economy has gone down, however I'll put this down to the extra confidence the tyres have given me!
On my old Conti Sport Contact 1 previously fitted (see the end of my last review, as these were old), the traction control would kick in at the drop of a hat, and this has all but stopped since fitting the RainSports.
Overall, a cracking tyre that I would happily recommend to anyone.
