Uniroyal RS3 or Ultrac Vorti for wear

As these cost roughly the same, and both get good reviews, which are likely to last longer?
If anyone has run both, are the RS3's noticeably louder?

I have Vorti's on my Z4. Wear rate is pretty good. I've had the fronts on for about 3 years. I do around 8k miles a year and they have 3.5mm left on them. The rears take a hammering but hold up well.

If that's your only options, then definitely go for the Vorti's. The rain sports get a good write up, but I don't think they're in the same league.
