Having driven a number of leading high performance tyres(Pirelli P Zero Dunlop Sport Maxx,Goodyear Eagle F1 asymmetric,Continental Sport Contact3),I was very pleased with all aspects of this new offering from Goodyear.The handling in both wet and dry was especially pleasing considering my driving style and 200 horses to the front wheels.Compared against the Conti 3s they replaced,the difference is night and day ,with upmost confidence in cornering especially worth mentioning.Would I recommend?,most definately,would I buy again?...yes.

I bought these tyres after looking at all the reviews and recommendations for the GOLF GTI, these came up 4th best and found them on ebay for 90 per tyre, bargain!
i had to get these after all the amazing reviews in the rain and ...OMG, they are INCREDIBLE,
i couldn't believe it, even driving this car hard in very wet roads and in fast situations you feel in total control, and my traction control rarely flashes up anymore!
i bought the car with box standard cheap tyres, and having these fitted have changed the whole driving experience of my car!
these tyre are perfect in the UK with all the wet weather! i recommend these tyres to anyone! and anyone who has a car with more power then an average car..
they also have a really smart design "v shape" which looks really cool!

Lots of road noise and a very hard tyre.....Average to say the least....

A decent enough tyre but IMO Bridgestone hasn't really advanced the game far enough from the old RE001 Adrenalin. They have gone from class leader to mid-pack with this tyre. Competitors like the Toyo T1 Sport and Goodyear Eagle F1Asymmetric 2 cost a bit more but are better performers.

Had a full set of these fitted and instantly noticed increased understeer (it even felt as if the sidewall was bending under lateral forces).The fronts lasted only 4000 miles before they were right down to the treadwear indicator! The rears however have lasted much longer ( the Golf being front wheel drive),however,after taking the car in for the 40,000 mile service , I had mentioned to my mechanic about a possible rear wheel bearing issue only to be told that the inner shoulders of both tyres are ridged (think a beer bottle top)! The rears I should mention have done approx 15,000 miles , but even so for a flagship tyre I found this unacceptable,not to mention cracking on the shoulder and in the grooves.Cant wait to get them off and fit Goodyear Eagle assym 2s to match the front.If you are looking for a premium brand...look elsewhere.
