I've had these Rainsport 2's fitted about a week now.
All I can say say compared to the P Zero Neros that they replaced they're incredible! I've only done about 100 miles on them so far, but I think they are well worth the money (more than Avon ZZ3's but less than Pirelli PZN's)and deserving of the great reviews they get!
I'm properly chuffed with them, grip is superb on dry roads and we had a little summer downpour during a short drive they gave incredible grip in the wet. They instill (maybe a bit too much) confidence to push it that little bit harder into and out of corners. Feedback through the wheel is sharp and road noise is quieter than the Pirellis as well. I'm yet to see if the wear rate and sidewall strength is any good, but only time and mileage will tell on those fronts. For now though I would recommended them to other Fez ST owners any day of the week rain or shine!

Previously had 3 sets of Pzeors. The Pzeros are amasing in the dry, the harder you push them the more they grip. However in the wet the lose grip far too easy on such light car.
I replaced the Pzeros with Uniroyal rainsport 2's all round. Wet grip is fansastic. They do slide of corse as does every tyre given enough of a push, but very good grip in wet. Dry is very good too, but not quite as good as the best. Very pridactable though wet or dry. Would recomend for UK driving, but if I lived in a dryer place I'd stick with Pzeros.

Bought a pair of these nearly 3 years back after my 1 year old Avon ZZ3 were down to the threads on the very inside of the tyre! Thought it could have been something out of line - but after getting checked, all seemed ok, and Falkens have been spot on (won't be buying Avons again!). Wasn't my driving either, as I was being careful the first year of owning the car.
Purchased a second pair to get a complete set around a year, to 2 years ago. Excellent tyres. Loads more grip than the Avon ZZ3 and Pirelli PZero Nero tyres my car came with. Was getting understear and losing traction in some fairly sharp, low speed corners, even in the dry - which I couldn't understand. Falkens have been ace. I've done over 10,000 on the first pair and around 6 or 7 on the second. Wear seems to be pretty even and good so far, even though now I drive with a bit more 'spirit'.
Survived a 6 hour snow journey last christmas. Obviously nothing is going to be great in the snow, ice and sludge. But I think they did really well. Managed to drag herself up 'slip'roads where lorries and other cars were struggling. Got to my destination after surviving the dangers of the M4 and M5.
Back to normal conditions, you can feel the road under you - which I like, but also quite comfortable on most roads.
Will most likely be buying again. Fiesta ST 150. £62 - £67 each

I've had these for about 3 months on my Fiesta ST.
Before these, I had Pirelli P Zeros.
The Uniroyals have totally transformed the way the car feels - for the better.
The steering feel is now perfect, it was too light with the Pirellis.
There is so much grip in the wet I can't believe it. I've never experienced tyres this good in the wet, in my 25 years of driving!
The Pirellis felt like they were made of stone compared to these. Unless it was a hot summer's day, the Pirellis had very little grip and the steering felt way too light.
Every time I go out in the car, I still can't get over how good these tyres are. I wish I'd got them ages ago.

These tyres are amazing... I was lucky enough to lease the car, so they were paid for!! I would highly recommend these if you wanted a tyre with great wear, and great grip both wet and dry. Unfortunately they are not puncture proof... No longer in lease and hard times hitting home, I am no longer using the Michelin Tyres. I have noticed a real decrease in performance, and also a lack of grip in the wet! If you have the money, these in my opinion are the best tyres to use!

I had these fitted to my Skoda VRS and they were a revalation !
The previous tyres were Bridgestone Potenzas (poor wet performance) but the Avons are fantastic.
There's nothing like having some confidence in your tyres when it's tipping down, these are the ones for me in future. They are great in the dry as well. I've had Goodyear F1, Toyos etc, ignore the hype, fit these.

They last longer than other tyres, i drove my fiesta st in all the bad weather and snow. It never missed a beat, no aqua-plaining at all.
