Despite their name, they aren't the best in the wet. Nor at the pump.
It's probably also a price issue, but in 225/45 R 17 W,Y , the Pirelli Cinturato P7 ; Dunlop SP Sport MAXX TT; Continental ContiSportContact 3; Michelin Pilot Sport PS3; Bridgestone Potenza RE050 A and Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymetric did better in the wet - and overall.
If you can get them in a size that fits the rims and satisfies the MoT, the Pirelli Cinturato P7 won the test - and its better than the Uniroyal on all accounts, especially wear, wet handling, and FE while their price is similar.
