Product 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

Tyre review for Uniroyal RainExpert 3 155/80R13 79T
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.

I did not receive the correct tyres. I was contacted by staff and they helped me pick a different option. They also helped me pick some great tyres at a very good price.

Tyre review for Uniroyal RainExpert 3 155/80R13 79T
Any new tyres would be better than the old ones which date back to 1995! The new tyres provide and grip and are quieter.

The wide cross tread channels the rain away for superior grip.

Tyre review for Uniroyal RainExpert 3 155/80R13 79T
These tyres really confidence when driving and make the car feel stuck to the road, even though I have only driven a short distance. I use my Picanto 1.0 for daily driving, not driving fast so I am happy with my decision.
