Sorry to rack out this old chestnut as I am sure this has been discussed many times before .
So the existing Bridgestone SO2s are 19 yrs old and cracked in the tread but still legal so I think they will be condemned at the upcoming MOT.So what to replace them with . Toyo Proxies T1R or Uniroyal Rainsport 3 . The opinions seem divided ? The former a summer tyre ,the later a rain tyre. How do they both perform . Any views .?

Thanks. Looks as though for the 205/55/R15 front a V rating is only available which is up to 149 whereas the SO2 were rated to 186 .

Hi all many thanks for the positive response. Seems like Rainsport 3 is the way to go . I did search the on line suppliers and got the same results before posting this message.
