When comparing two summer tyres, the Uniroyal RainSport 3 and the Fulda SportControl 2, it's clear there are several key factors to consider. Both tyres have proven their worth in a myriad of tests, but certain strengths and weaknesses become apparent when you dig into the details.
The Uniroyal RainSport 3, manufactured by Uniroyal, is a high-performing option that has not yet been replaced by a newer model.

On the other hand, the Fulda SportControl 2, produced by Fulda, finished slightly behind the RainSport 3 in the same Autobild test, landing in the 9th position. Despite its slightly lower overall ranking, the SportControl 2 exhibits certain advantageous features. It scores highly in categories including exterior noise, comfort, rolling resistance, and cross aquaplaning. These strengths make it a good choice for drivers seeking a quieter, comfortable drive, especially in wet conditions.
The SportControl 2's performance not only earned it a good score (69%) on our site but its specific strengths in multiple individual categories also make it stand out against its competitor. Like the Rainsport 3, the SportControl 2 has not been replaced by a newer model.
