    Opinion from outside IE

    The biggest negative of my previous tyres Contisport3 was an amazing sensitivity to the holes in the ground (it wanted to snatch the hands off the wheel) and a high resistance to the managing the steering wheel. Uniroyal solved these problems. I almost couldn’t feel any resistance on the steering wheel, and the resistance is comparable to the behavior of the tyres with the width of 205 on dry which is actually typical for this tyre brand. The tyre has a soft shoulder that may be experienced during fast driving, but does not interfere with the normal operation and comfort. On a rain the tyre is brilliant, which is not surprising in case of this tyre brand. This tyre is considered the inventory of the rain tyres. On the highway in Croatia the biggest rain caught me. I’ve never seen such rain in my life. Despite the fact that the wipers couldn’t deal with it, and that the river flowed on the road, I was able to go boldly with the speed 70-75mph without risking anything. Tyre has never lost contact with the road. Falling in puddles feels like the car slows down but the tyres would ideally remove water from under the wheels. For them, there is no aquaplaning. I came back home on these tyres in one piece. On worn conti this could end badly. I do not know how sustainability is, but if it bearable I think I found the perfect tyre. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside IE

    The tyre has a very soft shoulder and car floats on them. On the previous Bridgestone tyres, the driving precision was incomparably better. At the beginning I had the impression that the car throws its back on the corners, but it is simply the tyre doing I wrote aboutearlier. Today 10/07/2014 I had no way to avoid getting into the puddles and dropped 100km / h which caused that I just literally sailed, ie the steering wheel turned slightly to the left and the car flew right to the forest until I got my spine chilled. If someone likes to go a little faster, I really do not recommend these tyres. At higher speeds, I have the impression that the car would be suspended on some elastic ball and a delicate unevenness would cause the car to be blasted into the air. I will add to this all that I have a sports suspension at the factory and this tyre terribly spoils the characteristics of this work. The current distance of about 8 thousand km.

    Opinion from outside IE

    I bought these tyres inpired by Internet users' reviews and I'm disappointed. The only good thing I can say about these tyres is that they have actually good grip in the wet. For someone who only drives around the city and very calmly these may be good tyres, but with this style of driving Chinese cars for 2/3 of the price also work.The biggest disadvantage of Rainsport 3 is in my opinion fatal grip on curves in dry conditions. I'm not talking about reckless driving here, but on the highway at 140 km / h the fear of entering a bigger arc, because it feels like the car is supposed to fly away (sometimes even ESP activates). I have been driving the same style for the last 5 years on Japanese manufacturer's tyres purchased at a similar price, and then the car was driving in curves like on rails. To sum up: tyres for people who like to feel safe on wet surfaces, and not for people who like a bit more dynamic ride, especially on curves and in corners Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside IE

    Tyres in general are good. I confirm all good opinions about traction, hold, etc. These tyres are incredibly soft. On one hand, it’s improving the driving experience because they suppress inequalities. On the other hand, they are exposed to damage. Not to mention that, in my case, a fast bump into the curb may damage the rim. Previously, I had the Yokohamach Advan Sport mounted for four years and although it was very difficult because the tyres were hard, the tyres were not damaged. When it comes to Uniroyals last season, three times I had to visit the fitting station. This year, after the first month, I already repaired the tyre. Reason: wedging into a too deep hole. Perhaps this is due to the 45 profile, but these things simply should not happen these times. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside IE

    That was once again a conscious choice of tyres. For many years, I'm choosing Uniroyal tyres for a rainy summer. Everything happens on the dry and wet surfaces, you only need to keep on the road. It is the next generation of tyres, revised and improved. Very good drainage and rubber compound provide a high comfort while driving. Driving on wet in fast corners ensures the stability of the car through the special tread. On the highway at speeds of 80-85mph without any effect of aquaplaning. Brief braking provides further security. Only the relatively rapid consumption is a little inconvenient. Covering at a distance of about 25000miles is the result of an inadequate tyres. If you use two sets in one year, here you will be using them for 3-4 years. Read more Collapse

RainSport 3 is a summer tire designed for mid-range cars and SUVs. It is marked with a special umbrella symbol, used by Uniroyal to indicate its rain tires. The brand is a leader in manufacturing tires that ensure safety on wet surfaces. RainSport 3 is a great choice for drivers who want to maintain their dynamic driving and feel confident on the road, regardless of the road conditions.



Grip

Adhesion:

The contact surface of the tire has been optimized, resulting in excellent traction. The unique properties of this solution are especially useful in heavy rains. The car is safely controlled on the bends, and the tires respond perfectly to the movements of the steering wheel. Additional safety is assured by a shortened braking distance during dynamic maneuvers.



Aquaplaning

Protection against aquaplaning:

Uniroyal designed the RainSport 3 model using solutions invented by nature. Drainage grooves are inspired by the unique properties of shark skin and provide improved water flow. Users of Shark Skin Technology will experience a noticeable increase in road safety and resistance to dangerous aquaplaning, which may cause loss of vehicle control.



Handling

Driving:

RainSport 3 was appreciated by jurors, who awarded the Uniroyal brand with the prestigious Red Dot Design Award. This special award is the recognition of the innovation and functionality of the tire. The asymmetric tread design ensures driving safety, maximum performance and effective braking in all conditions. RainSport 3 is quiet even at high speeds, optimizing the acoustics in the cab and guaranteeing exceptional comfort.
