    Pretty much have to decide between these two bad boys for my Leon. €430 for Uniroyal, €500 for Michelin. Which should I go for? Or is there a better brand that I should go for. Thanks

    Compare them on http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk and decide based on the reviews?

    Michelin are a premium brand tyre whereas Uniroyal are an upper mid range tyre. With only €70 in the difference I'd probably go with the Michelins but either brand are fine really.

    Depends on the model too. Not just the make.

    Hi I have Uniroyal rain sport 2 tyres on my VRs and I have never had a tyre perform so well I will be getting new one shortly to swap the front to the rear as the michellin on the back are near finished and I can honestly say the grip off the uniroyal is unbeliveable.

    Just because some have a big name they still have tyres that have lower ratings then others with names not so well known well worth a trip also to a tyre fitter Indy and ask for some tips.
