Uniroyal Rallye4x4 Street

I fitted these on my Honda CR-V MK2 (2002-2005) they were the third set from new.

Original Bridgestones were fine in the dry & lethal in the wet, lasted 20K/miles. Next were Michelin SUV tyres that were good both wet & dry & would have been refitted after 28K/miles, except they stopped making them :(

So after some research Uniroyal Rallye looked like the best replacement, with a useful tread pattern as drive in fields. They were fitted just before our very snowy winter in 09/10 they performed flawlessly in the wet, in snow & in the fields on wet grass, even when proper 4x4's were sliding all over the place. Dry grip was less than the Bridgestone or Michelin, but wet was much better. Unfortunately, the down side was they wore out in 17K/miles. But they were worth itjust for the winter grip.

Last sets have been the Avon Rangers, with the latest set reverting to a more off road oriented thread pattern, they are just below the michelins performance.

The Uniroyal Rallye 4x4 Street tyres replaced a set of terrible (I would say dangerous) Hifly HF 201 tyres that the previous owner had fitted just prior to me getting the car.
I've been using Uniroyals (original Rainsport, Rainsport 2 and Rainexpert) on various vehicles for a number of year now and have always been pleased with their performance particularly in the wet. I live and work in North Wales, so a tyre that can confidently handle wet roads is a no brainer and the Rallye 4x4 street excels in this area with dry grip performance not far behind. What has suprised me is the tyres ability in winter conditions - not bad considering it's not really a winter tyre. Road noise is very low but, in common with most tyres, I expect it to increase as the tread wears. Add to this the reasonable cost of these tyres at 72GBP a corner and they start to make real sense as a smart buy.
I'm no boy racer (been there, done that, got the t-shirt), but I still like to throw the car around when road condition permit and this tyre allows a bit of fun with a reduced risk ending up sideways or in a ditch. A more spirited driver may disagree but for an experienced fifty something driver like me these tyres are more than adequate.
Of course there are some downsides. The side walls are very soft (like most Uniroyal tyres I've used) resulting in reduced feedback and a general soft spongy ride, increasing the inflation pressure by 3-4 psi improves things considerably - just make sure you don't exceed uniroyal's maximum specified pressure.
The good wet grip performance of this tyre is in part the result of using a fairly soft rubber compound on the tread area (again like most Uniroyal tyres I've used). This will inevitably mean a shorter life than some other tyres. Personally I'm happy to accept this as a trade off for good wet/dry grip. After all, that's what tyres are supposed to do.
