The Uniroyal RainSport 3 and the Firestone Roadhawk are both summer tyres that have been put to the test in various performance categories. This comparison will shed light upon their individual strengths and weaknesses based on the data gutted from conducted tests.
The Uniroyal RainSport 3 comes from the house of Uniroyal Manufacturers, a brand known for its quality products. The RainSport 3, however, doesn't seem to live up to expectations reaching an overall rating of just 51%. This tyre was placed in the 21st position out of 53 in the Autobild test. Contrasted to the previous models in this line, the RainSport 3 does not show significant improvements in test results. Unfortunately, we do not have information regarding any newer model replacing this tyre.
On the other hand, the Firestone Roadhawk boasts a much higher rating of 72%. Manufactured by Firestone, this tyre outperformed the RainSport 3 in the Autobild test, landing in the 13th position out of the 53 tyres tested. As such, the Roadhawk appears to be the stronger choice in relation to its test performances. Similarly to the RainSport 3, there are no known previous models or newer models replacing the Roadhawk.
Verdict
Uniroyal RainSport 3: Although the RainSport 3 displays solid capabilities for a summer tyre, it didn't shine in the Autobild test, landing in the bottom half of the list. It might not be the go-to choice for drivers looking for the absolute best performance, but it could still be a decent fit for those who prioritize other features in a tyre.
Firestone Roadhawk: Earning an impressive overall rating and a good standing in the Autobild test, the Roadhawk illustrates a clear edge over the RainSport 3. It stands as a more reliable and potentially more efficient choice for drivers.
To conclude, the Firestone Roadhawk emerges as the stronger tyre between these two summer tyres, with superior test results and a higher overall rating. This doesn't mean that the Uniroyal RainSport 3 is a bad choice, but among these two, the Roadhawk definitely has the upper hand.
