Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric Reviews

Given 70% (breakdown) while driving a Audi A6 2.5 TDI Quattro (235-45-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 12,000 average miles
The grip from these tyres was as most reviewers had stated nothing short of brilliant, even in the snow lasy year.
However, they just do not suit this car at all. From new they were fine, but after about 1000 miles they started to become twitchy. As they have worn further they have become very vague and do not track well at all, following every trough in the road. This makes for a tiring drive having to constantly correct the steering. Wear is also not great, only about 2.5mm remaining after just 12,000 miles.
I had high hopes for these tyres but regrettably would not buy them again for this car.

Great tyre, long wear - superb grip in the dry and the wet, better on the road than a track day but all the same good enough for me. Better than the P Zero's the car came with as an OEM fitment. And cheaper, not by much but two tanks of fuel!

Driving on mostly country roads for 8,000 spirited miles
Fitted 245/35/18s to the rear of my beloved S2000.

Love these tyres, acres of grip in thr dry and in the wet. I only whished they lasted a bit longer. That said I dont hang around when driving. Definately would recomend and definately would buy again.

My car is not really designed for comfort being a two seater roadster, so I am unable to comment.

Very good tyres, sure will buy again, but wondering Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2, must be superb!

I always remember having the Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3, I loved this tyre. However the Assymmetric version is better in terms of stronger tyre wall, so the car feels more stable on the road in the corners. The grip however in the wet is better but in the wet, I think the GSD3 is on equal par, its just that the GSD3 tread was more tailored as a summer tyre. The road noise was the same as the GSD3. Again its a shame that the tread pattern is less attractive, but for the perspective of becoming a tyre to last the driver throughout the course of the year its definitely the more practical choice. Especially as the UK climate is changing and our winter weathers have the risk of snow. The tread pattern on the Assymmetric is better as a winter and snow type so another plus.

As for cost, it did not last me long, but I enjoyed every drive and turn. I will look forward to getting the Goodyear Eagle Assymmetric 2 at some point as this is mean't to be a different compund which does last longer, and I think in this economy we might look or that value for money for out Car shoes to last just a little bit longer.

Again good attempt Goodyear, the tread appeal has gone, but they perform well. When I get the Assymmentric 2's, I will post up my point of view.

I would recommend to just go for the Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 2 as this is a better version of the ones I bought.

I recently bought these tyres for my Honda Civic Type R (FN2) to replace the Yokohoma Advanced Sport which were previously on the car.

I must say I am really impressed by the grip of these tyres , they really stick to the road like glue. I feel fully confident taking bends/corners at speed. Performance both in dry and wet conditions is remarkable.

I can not really comment on the tyre life as I have only driven

Given 96% (breakdown) while driving a BMW 320i (225-45-17-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 10,600 spirited miles
I'm the sort of driver (and biker) who I firmly believes that tyres are one of, if not the most important component on your car or bike. I push my car quite hard from time to time, doing track days and trips to the Nurburgring etc, and for me the way a tyre grips and handles is the most important thing. These Goodyears have excellent grip wet or dry, with wet grip particularly impressive. Good feedback, predictable at the limit, quiet running, and after over 10600 miles they have between 3 and 4mm of tread left. A very difficult tyre to fault for me. Would buy again as long as German made ones are still available (I'm told they are now made in China and I've heard horror stories of poor grip, although Goodyear claim they are the same).

great when new, but suffered from tramlining effects very badly even when running over the white lines when they were > half worn, actually throwing the car around.

I am very disappointed with the tires, they have approx 23000 miles & they started getting very noisy at 10000, I have had them balanced & rotated several times & they have cupped badley, the original RSA'S were good when people ride with us they often ask about the road noise,they are way to expensive to preform so poorly.
