I fitted these tyres to my 1996 Toyota hilux surf the previous tyres where BF goodridge all terrain tyre the difference in road noise is unreal and the handling as well I cannot comment on braking distance as I haven`t had to brake in aggression yet but I believe it will have improved from my previous tyres . I haven`t done enough miles yet to comment on fuel consumption but I expect it to be less . these are a great tyre I will buy again . Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

Quiet, light tires. Good handling - on dry and wet surfaces. Unfortunately, poor strength. After one summer season and a small run, a balloon came out of one of the tires and the steel edge was broken. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

Tyres (size 195/65 R15 91 H) I have had those for one season, I have travelled on them about 7.000 km (mainly in the city, but also a few longer holiday trips). On dry and wet surface tyres stick to the surface very well. Noise - up to 120 km / h - quiet; above 130 km / h - a bit more noise, but the noise level is still acceptable (the ears does not hurt, and the radio does not need to be turned up). The appearance does not matter to me, although it presents itself well - the tyre is to be safe and not to look nice. After 7.000 km tyre wear unnoticeable. Overally OK, but ... Previously I used Uniroyal RainSport 2 (on the same car) and thanks for the great impression and experience - I bought their next generation, that is RainExpert 3. Unfortunately, I have the impression that the newer not necessarily became better and that "better" has disappeared from the market. RainExpert 3 was excellent when it comes to grip: absolutely not afraid to go faster in the puddles, or faster to ride in the rut in the rain - they were like glued to the asphalt. With RainExpert 3 I have no such confidence and peace of mind: in such situations I have the impression that the tyres are balancing on the edge of grip the can offer but - surprisingly (and fortunately) - nothing bad ever happens. Moreover - even deliberate attempt to get the car into a light slip did not quite succeeded. Nevertheless, the unpleasant feeling - riding on the ice – doesn’t leave me. If not my previous experience with RainExpert 2, probably RainExpert 3 would recommend. But compared to RainExpert 2- I'm a bit disappointed: maybe I expected too much of them, but the predecessors - RainExpert 2- have set the bar high. Maybe it's a car issue, but to my Vectra - I would rather not buy them again. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

Driving Uniroyal RainExpert 3 is a pleasure and that's a comfort itself, I have had this particular brand before and I decided to buy this brand once again. Using this particular model you will be feel safe. My car is not very new but with these tyres I feel like I had a new car. Even if someone else will offer me a different cheaper tyres I will spend more money and go for these tyres. Despite the fact that it is a middle class tyre it is performed well. The safety is most important for me, I am a head of my family and I want to feel safe driving my car. Of course, good value for money. Honestly, I will recommend the brand. Good quality. Good wet grip and traction. God tyres for wet conditions . I do not drive very fast but Uniroyal RainExpert 3 are best tyres for them, who do not drive very fast. I didn’t have any problems with Uniroyal in the past. I never heard that someone else had any problems with Uniroyal. There is no need to moderate the tread wear. After driving over 50miles tyres looks good(that is the first season of the tyre). I'm shocked how good they looks like . They are still like new. These tyres already have my recommendation. If I had to choose again, I would still buy the same brand and model. Read more Collapse

Opinion from outside the UK

I was encouraged by the good reviews, I bought two Uniroyal tyres in September and I drove around 2k km. I have to admit that they are good in the wet, especially when it comes to ruts and potholes - aquaplaning definitely is not a problem for RainExpert 3. Unfortunately thats end of good points. Tyre behave worse while cornering - it is so soft and tucked up, so I never knew what they will behave like when driving through the curves (I was testing it at different pressures) The worst is the failure! - the tyre just cracked at the curb (a manoeuvre we do few hundred times every year) - two holes on the side of the tyre. From oponeo I heard initially that the recognition of the complaint is unlikely ... Uniroyal also got rid of the problem. So I bought two premium brand tyres and I'm totally happy - the puddles can be a bit worse, but the wet is holding the same, and the stability and predictability in the corners is simply incomparable. No more savings, and certainly no more Uniroyal! I do not recommend, and I strongly advise against !!! Read more Collapse

Scale of scores: Highest lowest

Uniroyal RainExpert 3 is a summer tyre designed for passenger cars. This is a middle-class tyre and guarantees the best value for money. The asymmetric tread pattern helps a car to drive safely on any type of surface.

Aquaplanting

Tyre developers have opted for the RainExpert 3, The 3 RainExpert performs excellently in rain due to the Shark Skin Technology, which features very small grooves in the water channels to reduce the flow turbulence and ensures a faster displacement of water from under the contact patch. As a result, the driver has better control over the vehicle on wet roads and is better protected against aquaplaning.

Grip

RainExpert 3 stands out from the competition when it comes to optimised water flow and its tread, which is responsible for excellent traction on wet roads. The confident cornering and excellent traction is ensured by the large outer shoulder blocks. According to the European classification, which determines the wet grip, the Rain Expert 3 received the highest rating - Class A.

Fuel efficiency

The tread was designed to optimise the contact patch with the road, which translates to lower friction forces and lower rolling resistance on all types of surfaces. How does this affect the car user? The tyre uses less energy to maintain constant speed in a straight line and lowers fuel consumption.

Uniroyal is a well known manufacturer, especially among drivers who are looking for models with the best proven wet grip. Since the launch of the first rain tyre by Uniroyal, professional tyre test results and drivers opinions confirm that their models are the best solution for wet weather. Uniroyal also owes its prestige to the fact that the company belongs to one of the largest tyre manufacture groups in the world - the German Continental.
