From our tests, the BFGoodrich Advantage scored 68%, with notable points for its comfort and dry handling in the Autobild test, securing an 18th position out of 53.

One of its highlighted strengths during the Autobild 2024 test was its dynamic dry handling, low rolling resistance, and an agreeable quiet ride. However, a slight downside shows a tendency for understeering in wet conditions.


On the other hand, the Uniroyal RainSport 5 scored 64%, making a strong showing in the Autobild test, thanks to its proficiency in aquaplaning resistance where it ranked 19th. It demonstrated commendable noise reduction features, evident in the ADAC test. Notably, it shone in wet conditions exhibiting good handling on wet surfaces but showed clear weaknesses on a dry road, as revealed in the Autobild 2024 test. Downsides include a less than stellar environmental and durability performance and a higher fuel consumption.


Overall, both the tires from BFGoodrich and Uniroyal have displayed solid performance in their respective conditions. The BFGoodrich Advantage triumphs with its superior dry surface handling, fuel efficiency, and comfort, while the Uniroyal RainSport 5 impresses with its stellar wet surface handling and noise reduction.
