215/35 17 Tyre Review Highlights

Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 rated 64% while driving a Ford Focus
Driving on a combination of roads for 15 miles
Excellent Wet Grip, average dry grip; however difference between two is smaller than most tyres. Wear rate was only average (~10k on the front, 20k on the back)
Biggest issue has been the number of 'failures' we have had on my wifes focus. Had to replace a total of 5 tyres early (well before the wear bar) over the past 4 years. 3 with enormous (multiple) bluges appearing in the side wall & 2 with extremly uneven wear with huge flat spots accompanied by a dramatic increase in road noise. These are characteristics I have never seen on other tyres. Scary stuff & in hindsight would not go near them, or other goodyears again.
