BMW E46 330ci Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Uniroyal RainSport 2 given 74% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly town for 30000 spirited miles
My local specialist recommended these RFT as replacements for my Continentals. I have no complaints at all, they gripped well in all conditions except snow, lasted 4 years before on of the rears got a puncture but at least it didn't come right off the rim like the previous ones. You need to take care of the rears as they seem vulnerable to slow punctures. I was forced to use what was available to me and now have Bridgestone Re050a which seem good under breaking, but you would expect this on brand new tyres. However, they are significantly more expensive than the Uniroyals.....only time will tell if it is a good choice.

I bought these Kumho ECSTA LE ku39 225/40/18 looking at the best price/performance value on the market, after reading many tests and reviews. After I replaced the dunlops with these tyres on my car (Bmw 330ci, 275hp) I immediately noticed the difference in comfort on bumpy roads. The steering is sharp and can be pushed in a corner. All around i can say it is a very good tyre and recommend it. I will buy again.

Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 average miles
I've had these tyres on the rear for almost 1,000 miles. Initially I was worried I made the wrong choice as they were a bit unpredictable, but after around 2/300 miles they really started to work well! Wet grip is great, Dry grip is even better, low road noise and they give excellent feedback for the rear of the car!

I've just ordered a front set which I review once i've had the chance, I'm feeling confident that I chosen the right tyre for me! Once you get over the first 300 miles, they are a good tyre!
