Used to love the Rainsport 1 and 2 on my old car in the wet, but the Goodyear Eagle F1 beats them hard in the dry and probably similar in the wet, not tried the 3 though.

Winters coming grab some winter wellies. :laugh:

Then, personally I'd go for the Eagle F1's or the Michelin Pilot Super Sports; around £85/£105 respectively in 225/40/18. :happy2:

Rainsport 3's wear fantastically quickly! Mine have lasted less than 10k

Not sure why the Vreds have a poor Wet Grip rating compared to the others:

AS2: A
PS3: A
PSS: A
RS3: A

Vreds: C

 :confused:

The EU tyre regs are a load of poo anyway.... Eagle f1 in same size has both a and b depending on load rating.  Sessantas are a far better tyre than the rainsports.
