vs
Tires Uniroyal or DEXTER
Now I have Uniroyal Rainsport 5 and they also have amazing grip, but the sidewall could be a little bit stiffer for my liking.
Pros: amazing grip
Cons: sidewall could be stiffer
on my 2015 I am riding in a set of Uniroyal AS Tiger paw 225 / 45 / R18. I really like them. I bought them new on eBay with stickers for about $600 (4) and had them mounted and balanced for $200.
Pros: really like them
We have a base model with no snow mode, but I've had a set of Uniroyal Tiger Paw "Ice & Snow 3"'s on for the last few Winters, and they performed pretty well. I never felt unsafe, even driving through some pretty sketchy stuff.
Pros: performed pretty well
Vehicle:
Hyundai
I ended up getting an Uniroyal summer tire for it as it was considerably cheaper than the Conti. Anyway, from tests I gathered that it is supposed to be top tier in wet condition and mid at best in dry. I have used for over a year now as my situation changed and ended up keeping the Corolla for the time being. I used it around 15k km so far in wide variety conditions, from 0 Celsius up to 40 and so far have zero issues. There is no sign of wear and tear, thread is still deep, no dry rot and driving never felt unsafe or had any other issues.
Pros: top tier in wet
Cons: mid in dry condition
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
Mileage: 15000 km
I have dextero Dat1. They got me through winter and mud without issues. I've had them over a year, and they don't really show much treadwear. The only downside is taking off in the rain from a stop with the wheels turned. The back of my truck is light, so the inside tire wants to spin. For a cheap tire, they do a good job. I would buy them again.
Pros: good in mud, good in snow
Cons: tire spin in rain
I put a set of the dextero at on my son's blazer. They did great. They are quiet. We put about 10,000 on them before we sold it. Only problem I saw was the front was wearing funny but that was the blazer not the tires.
Pros: quiet, did great
Cons: front wearing funny
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Blazer
Mileage: 10000 km
I bought these dextero all season tires 3 years ago. Every year I drive about 35k to 40k miles. I drive even during snow storm and these tires have a very good grip. So far, I don't have any complaints about this brand. It has a 50k mile warranty.
Pros: very good grip
Where I live there are grooves cut in the highway and Uniroyal tires are particularly susceptible to tracking on those grooves. Otherwise I’ve had pretty good luck with them.
Pros: pretty good luck
Cons: susceptible to tracking
Not really the best tires around they don’t last long
Cons: don't last long
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf

Pros: wore like rocks
Cons: worst handling on snow
Vehicle:
