4 x Uniroyal RainSport 5 Performance Road Tyres 225 40 18 92Y Extra Load XL, wcode, Sold by Demon Tweeks Direct
The Uniroyal RainSport 5 is the very latest in Uniroyals awardwinning RainSport range. It continues the tradition of offering the very best wet handling, along with all the latest technology youd expect from an ultrahigh performance road tyre.
Best in class aquaplaning resistance
Outstanding wet and dry handling
Shark Skin technology shrugs off water
The Uniroyal RainSport is well known for offering a combination of classleading handling in the wet, excellent handling in the dry as well as offering all of the enhancements in technology youd expect from an UltraHighPerformance tyre being launched in 2019.
As Uniroyal are owned by Continental, they share many of the technologies that go into Continental tyres, but with Uniroyals singular focus on wet performance. As well as an asymmetric tread pattern designed to quickly clear water from the tread of the tyre, they also use Uniroyals own Shark Skin Technology. Inspired by the way shark skin is actually made of tiny interlocking scales, the surface of the tyre receives a similar treatment. Just like the skin of a shark, this ensures that water flows smoothly and uniformly off the surface of the tyre into draining sipes leaving clear tread to make contact with the road. These features combined with the new compound give this tyre the classleading resistance to aquaplaning you expect from a Uniroyal RainSport.
The RainSport 5 also excels at both wet and dry handling in corners thanks to both an asymmetric tread pattern designed to put the right tread pattern in solid contact with the road as you go around corners, and thanks to reinforced ribs and shoulder designed to stop the tyre deforming too much under load as your vehicle leans over on it. Uniroyal set out to make this better than the RainSport 3 and they look to have achieved that.
Uniroyal have also put a real emphasis on tyre life, fuel economy and lownoise with this new design. The new compound, pattern, and stiffer shoulders help ensure even tread wear and longer tyre life Uniroyal are quoting up to 15% improvement over the RainSport 3. Fuel economy and rolling noise are also improved.
If you want a tyre that performs outstandingly well in the rain, offers all the benefits of a modern compound and tread pattern and lasts a long time, you cannot go wrong with the Uniroyal RainSport 5.
