Volvo V70 R AWD Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric given 100% (225-40-18-W)

Had used Pirelli P zero Rosso's for years, but was aware now of tram lining and decided to make a change, after reading feed back from this site, I decided to go with The Asymmetric, wow, what a tyre, has transformed everything about the handling of my car for the better. These tyres are like slicks, with grooves in them, they get hot and sticky, who cares how long they last with grip like this.

Driving on a combination of roads for 12000 average miles
Great value replacement for Pirelli P Zero Rossos. Car feels very good on them, firm and condidence building on the road. I tend to be picky with tyres, and did a lot of reading up before I put them on, so happy with my choice and will be using these again.

Also they look good, and have good rim protection. Fronts have not done 12000 miles, and looking at the wear so far I'm expecting at least 18000 before they're worn out - and that's on a 300bhp car.

Ride is good, noise is low, grip is good. If I'm being really picky I think the Pirellis are a bit softer and higher grip in the dry, but these were near half the price. Highly recommended.
