RainExpert 3 Tyres description & features

Uniroyal’s RainExpert 3 consists of summer tyres suitable for personal cars with water drainage being the main consideration. The company works together with Shark Skin Technology in terms of the design and production of treads and grooves that are helpful in draining water. For the drainage of rainwater, the RainExpert 3 has deep round channels that help in collecting water, as well as angled grooves that will drain water from the tyre to its outer edge. Moreover, the tread blocks have slits for providing improved braking and cornering on wet road surfaces. The tread blocks of the tyre are designed to keep stability while braking.

This model being the third generation of the RainExpert Continuous series, the RainExpert 3 summer tyre line now provides 3rd generation Continuous series summer passenger car tyres. Some sizes of the series are also produced with XL construction that gives extra load reinforcement for cars needing high carrying ability. Tyres.co.uk provides the Uniroyal RainExpert 3, including the reinforced XL tyres.

Highlights

  • Deep circular water channels
  • Angled water-draining grooves
  • Tread block slits for wet grip

The reason I bought these tyres was the wet weather performance, and I have to say, they do appear to have a decent wear rate.

Tyre review for Uniroyal RainExpert 3 175/65R13
I had these tyres fitted right before a two week period of nonstop rain, and the grip was incredible. I never had a concern about their performance and I actually felt really confident and calm driving in the rain because of them. They're also excellent on dry roads and have better grip than any other tyres I've had on my car.

Tyre review for Uniroyal RainExpert 3 155/80R13
The performance is phenomenal across the board. I'm using the RS3 tyres in 225/45 and 55/17 sizes on two different cars and in all areas, they excel. On my 1.8 Civic, they offer fantastic stability on dry surfaces and especially when fast cornering. They are over 20,000 miles now and although I am considering replacing them since they are close to the 2mm tread limit, the grip has been consistent. For my 2.2 tonne Alphard campervan, I'm using the XL variants and they are about 25,000 miles with some tread still remaining. They are very stable and reassuring in all areas and especially when it's wet and when braking. They are smooth for the ride and minimal on the body roll. They are also good on wet grass and soft ground of campsites. I am still determining the RS5s on a Mazda MX5, but the grip feels exceptionally secure so far.

Tyre review for Uniroyal RainExpert 3 145/80R13
This year due to the pandemic, I have only been able to cover 800 miles in my MG Midget. The tyres show very little wear and have required almost no wheel balancing. The sidewalls do seem quite flexible which causes the car to wobble quite a bit on sharp turns but do provide a smooth ride which is something to appreciate in a small car. I haven't had the chance to drive in heavy rain, but the soft compound and deep grooves suggest to me that they will perform well on wet roads. I would recommend these tyres for smaller and lighter vehicles like my MG Midget.

I've used Uniroyal tyres before and always fitted them to my own vehicles, plus I've recommended them to my customers instead of the cheap Chinese tyres that need to be replaced every year. In my experience, with 40 years in the motoring trade, it is more economical to spend a little more at the outset. Cheap Chinese tyres are in my opinion not worth it.
