Hi all.
Just about to get new rear tyres.
Toyos, or Falkens seem the most talked about at the moment so will probably go that way. SO3's fitted.
First though has anyone got or considered Uniroyal Rainsports, the tread pattern looks good but are they any good.
Any opinions or other options please.

Got these fitted to my Skody vRS.

In the wet, compared with the crap Falkens that were fitted, they are brilliant!

Swift reply Haircutmike.

I was hoping for positive replies but the words Brilliant has suprised me.
Do they handle ok in the dry, i know difficult to judge because most tyres are ok in the dry.

Perfectly good enough.

We mustn't loose site of the fact that we're driving on the roads.

Compared to the triple 8's I normally run, standard road tyres in the dry are rubbish no matter what make!

Keep within the cars limits and there's not a lot to chose between the better makes, you get what you pay for.
