Used the F1A3 for the past 3 years and covered almost 60000 km on a1.9tons car. The ride is superb, the car feels a lot plusher and precise than with the P7 cinturatos I had before. Never had an issue with grip. Now, that the new model is up I will try the F1A5, hope I will get at least the same results as with the predecesor.

Comfortable and safe tyre especially on Wet conditions. On dry is lacking precision and grip. Wear is excellent.

Given 44% while driving a (225/45 R17 W) on for 0 miles
The experience at first was great but... after few months of using 70% Town 30% Highway - I had 3 blow outs on the side - one on pothole. Now I am into 3rd season and they started to loose grip. In normal city trafic on tight turnes. They are 4 years old and they have quite some tread left. I really developed aversion againts GoodYear. Maybe I just happend to land some bad batch but it should not suppose to happend to such big and expensive manufactore.

Had to replace a number of these due to tyre wall bubbles appearing without any physical damage accruing to them.

Given 80% while driving a Chevrolet camaro (275/35 R20) on mostly motorways for 28,375 average miles
This is the only tire we have had on the Beast. I I love the dry grip , the wet is not to bad either but the car is only summer driven and 95% has been in great weather. So wet grip has very little track time . The car handles amazing . This is the summer run flat OEM . Tire wear seems less the average with the kind of driving I do. But I do understand it’s a max performance tire so in the real worl would have to try out different tires to see if I notice a difference from other brands. As for road noise I find the tire to be less noisy then I thought it would be , the top is 99.5% down we I love the rag top . The Beast has never seen gravel so I cant give a rating on loose road and compfort in that area. Over all I Love the feel and ride and the grip seems the tire was made for the car. Hope this helps any future purchases that may come about . I would most likely stick wit these tires again. Tires are way to expensive to in my opinion trying out other options and not liking them . Kinda stick to what I know works . Is that right or wrong not to experiment only someone with the same car in my opinion would know .. thanks for reading .

Been running Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric's (3's and now 5's) for a good few years. Think the 3's top the 5's, just, so if you can find them I'd go with them. Get 15-18k from the fronts and are a very good all round tyre. Was never a Goodyear fan, but my tyre guy talked me into a full set over 5 years ago with the adage that if I was not 100% happy with them, he would change them for any other tyre I wanted at no cost. May not be the best at any one thing, but a bloody strong 2'nd at everything. I trust them 100% and are very predicable and only start to tram line once you get them down to just under 2mm, so let you know when a new set is needed.

Given 70% while driving a MINI Cooper S Works (215/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 2,000 spirited miles
These replaced some very aged budget tyres fitted by a prior owner, so the improvement was always going to be huge. They have a generous rim protector and a fairly attractive sidewall. Grip levels in the wet and dry are excellent as you would expect for this level of tyre, this is a second car which I really only drive hard and you would need to be driving at very unsafe speeds to pass the limits of these tyres on this car. One area I feel they are particularly good for my car is in reducing wheelspin when pulling away or accelerating hard out of a corner - they are considerably better than previous rubbish tyres and also the Continental sport contact tyres on my mother’s Cooper S from the same year in which even she complains about wheelspin (they are runflats admittedly). For example pulling out of the local petrol station forecourt which is uneven and greasy - hers will flick up the traction control from even a very gentle take off, whereas mine simply doesn’t - even if you pull away quite aggressively. I don’t think that initial turn-in is very sharp on these tyres, as though the sidewall is a little soft. I feel they are very susceptible to punctures. I have sustained two punctures in 2000 miles, both pieces of metal picked up in my own drive - we have 3 other cars in regular use passing over the same tarmac (including another Mini from the same year wearing Continental tyres) and none have suffered the same issue. One was a staple in the sidewall (from a regular office stapler) which completely wrote off the tyre with under 500 miles on it. The second was a small piece of rusty metal that had fallen off my Land Rover (they do that). I also notice there is some damage to one of the nearside sidewalls and I haven’t hit any kerbs! I felt the same with my previous Golf GTI which was fitted with (then brand new) Assy 2’s which obliterated a sidewall on a cattle grid. I’m interested to read other reviews to see if others have had the same issue.

Given 93% while driving a Mitsubishi Lancer 1.8 4 Door (2008) (215/45 R18 V) on a combination of roads for 1,000 spirited miles
I changed to Goodyear from Falken Ziex 914 And I am shocked as driving is now much better in all aspects. But yes, regarding handling there Is liitle bit soft, So in very Fast And sharp corners you do not know how much grip you have if the tyres Are cold. Anyway when these tyres get warm, everything changes, they just grip And grip. How the hell Goodyear is able to do such a thing. No matter as driving my Lancelot is now fun as hell.

Much improved and better than Asymmetric II, that I didn't liked, mainly because they had very soft sides. Very good overall, medium wear, very good grip, a little bit noisy. After more than 3 years, they are still
