Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Louis123 - 02-06-2012
Stuck between these 2, got 2 seriously bad punctures on the front so thought I'd treat the clones to some new tyres all 4.
Uniroyal rainsport 2's = £148.99 for 4
Uniroyal rainexperts = £120 for 4 (cash sale) of a mate
The rainexperts appear to be dearer on eBay at £51.99 a tyre
What's your reviews on which ones I should get?
Re: Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Midnightclub - 02-06-2012
Are you getting 50 or 55 profile tyres? 50's are muchos cheaper! I know a lot of people highly rate the RS2's for there sheer grip in the wet although they do have quite a soft side wall so look 'flat' as such
Re: Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Ed Doe - 02-06-2012
I recommend Parada Spec 2s in the wet. Can't go wrong. Specially with some 4-pots aswell....

Michelin Pilot Exalto 2s
Re: Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Midnightclub - 03-06-2012
Expensive but i'd say they're worth the price, seem to last ages and the grip in dry and wet is awesome
Re: Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Louis123 - 03-06-2012
I've read excellent reviews on these rain experts will be getting them fitted today
Re: Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Midnightclub - 03-06-2012
Let us know how they are
Re: Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Kezzieboy - 03-06-2012
I'm damn happy with my rainsport 2's, considering more often than not in this country it's wet, it makes sense to me!
Re: Rainsport 2's or rainexperts - Louis123 - 03-06-2012
Just got the car back And took her for a spin, and wow such a difference they are much much smoother than the budgets that was only and with them being 195/50/15's they fill the arch so much better, it's currently raining here and I've got to say it grips a hell of a lot more it feels like I'm driving it in the dry!! Rainexperts FTW and at £30 + vat a tyre you can hardly complain!
