The Uniroyal RainSport 3 is a summer performance tyre constructed for clearing standing water. With a directional tread, it guides water through back to front grooves. The channels of the tread also use Shark Skin Technology, a surface texture inspired by the skin of a shark, designed to reduce turbulence to aid in the effective movement of water through the tread. Uniroyal’s Grip Compound is used for enhanced grip on both wet and dry tarmac, leading to shorter braking distances. The flexible Shoulder Blocks help the tread retain the blocking grip to respond to the cornering force and aid steering.
The RainSport 3 is available in some sizes with reinforced XL construction for higher load capacity vehicles. This model has since been succeeded by the RainSport 5 in Uniroyal’s summer collection, although the RainSport 3 is still offered for those replacing the same tyre. Tyres.co.uk has the Uniroyal RainSport 3 with us available in reinforced XL construction.
