Uniroyal Rainsport 3

[C.A.R.]

Rs2s aren't much better than any other budget except in the rain in my experience, bought on the strength of reviews on here and was unpleasantly surprised, if anything they're worse than the 6yo mismatched budgets that were on there before.

Not much of an experience with them then?

RS2's IMO are a great tyre. I've ran them on 2 different 306's and an MX5. I'd say dry grip is pretty bloody good - not dissimilar to the Goodyear Eagle F1 I had before, but without the 'snappy' breakaway on the limit. Wear rate, particularly on the shoulder of the tyre, is a problem because the sidewalls are so flimsy. I had this issue on the F1s also though - it's just a problem if you attack every corner on 3 wheels.

I had Toyo's on the MX5 before and they were crap. Poor feel, poor grip levels etc. The only good thing was the wear rate, I think they are a denser compound as they took forever to wear out. I replaced one axle prematurely because I was fed up with the lack of grip/feel and unpredictability.
