I don't know what the current uniroyals are like, but I fitted a set to my MR2. Brilliant at cutting through standing water...
However the lack of braking force in the dry was quite memorable, locking up instead of any form of slowing down, right into the rear end of a Rover.

I have run these for a few years, since being recomended by two different tyre fitters who have them fitted to their motors. Now been through several sets in total, in 205/40/17 on the twingo (first set for it and latest tyres I have had fitted), 225/45/17 on the A3 Tdi and also fitted to Mrs Astra. Based on the usual compromise of grip/wear rate/price, they are a good choice and BFG have been part of the Michelin group for a while now.

The Uniroyals are some good overal tyres. Might agree about the breaking., had my ABS system working already one or two times as I'm running them at the moment,, luckily enough didn't park it into the rear of a rover!

One of my Monster Unit mates runs Federal 595 RS-Rs on his Nissan Pulmasar (Primera with SR20DET) and he swears by them.

Seriously sticky rubber, veeeeeerrry grippy in the Dry.
Very predictable in the wet too, just as good as an all weather tyre.

Think, R888s + Wet Weather Handling = 595 RS - Rs + Extra money saved for Fitting

many people says they're awful on wet, but in italy none knows this brand very well, and opinion sometimes aren't correctly...
