Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 Reviews - Page 9

I have had these on all 4 corners of my 2.0 stage 1, FWD TT for a year now. The car is my week daily driver and did 6,600 miles since fitting the new tyres. I have swapped them in X after 6 months. They came with about 7.5mm of thread and I lost 2mm across all tyres in 1 year of mostly spirited driving on A and B roads and country lanes in Yorkshire. The car hardly ever goes on the motorway. I plan on swapping them around again in the next three months to ensure even wear and max out their durability. As I replace tyres at 2 to 3mm, these should last me about 20K miles/3 years keeping to the same conditions. The grip on both wet and dry, comfort and precision still make these a decent proposition for low mileage drivers. I'd go for an all-season CrossClimate 2 or Kumho tyres if durability matters. I can easily get 50K miles out of Kumho tyres on a 4x4 SUV and still have over 2mm left.

Very amazing tires. Replaced my Pilot Sport 4's after the good reviews due to a good significant price difference. However I must admit I love these tires more than I love the Pilot Sports. I occasionally drive sport and the feedback is really good. Tire wear is absolutely impressive over the Pilot Sport 4's. I beat on them and showed hardly any wear. For me this is my most favorite tire so far.

I used to used asymmetric 3. I put on a set of pilot sport 4s however have gone back to the new asymmetric 5. The Michelin was a great tyre, looks fantastic and handles beautifully in the dry. But I found the wear was no where near as good as the Goodyear and the wet grip wasn’t quite there either. It aquaplanes a bit more and didn’t give quite as much confidence in the wet as the Goodyear. Therefore as an all rounder I think the Goodyear is the better tyre. And the difference in dry grip is small enough that it is out weighed by the Goodyear’s superior wet and all round performance

Decided to get a full set of these Eagle f1s fitted to my Audi, tracking also has been done on getting these fitted too. Was expecting a tyre that would last a lot longer than the Avons I had on before. Have to say I am very disappointed in the wear, The grip however, dry and wet was very good as well as the road noise, but tyre wear was the worst I have experienced so far. 13,000 miles and the rears are at the end of their life, even though it is a quattro I was expecting the fronts to maybe wear a little more from the cornering, but it seems rears have worn worse. Not sure if they are just not suited for the car, but will not be buying them again.

substituted my old Asymmetric 2s with the 5s after a very good 40.000 km experience with the former ones on every kind of surface. The 5s are only confirming the good qualities of this tire series. Incredible amount of dry and wet grip, very low noise and great feedback when driven at the limit. I drive most of the time in the city and most of the distance on highways, but love to also push the car to the limit on country roads occasionally. If not for the incredible performance, these tires should be chosen for the safety they offer

great tyre out performs the competition at a cheaper price have used all the goodyear assymetrics over the past 12 years and they keep improving on all models.

cant beat these tyres best value for money my ute has been modified to 360kw very happy with these tyres

Diesel-powered car with almost 300 HP and more than 600Nw measured 245/45 / R18. These tires have only one drawback. In agile driving (dry) they have little transversal grip in curves, which causes me a continuous intervention of the electronic control system of the car, especially on the rear axle. This occurs only in joyful driving, not in quiet driving, and makes it impossible to take advantage of the car's true power, as the strong support when cornering is mission impossible. In all other respects, dry braking , loudness, precision , works really well. In the wet it doesn't have this cornering support problem and subjectively it seems (I haven't actually measured it) that you can go faster in the corners than in the dry. In fact, if I go fast in the wet, the car's DSC barely blinks on occasion, while in the dry it does not stop intervening strongly. In other aspects in the wet, such as braking or hydroplaning, it also maintains a good performance. At the moment with about 10,000 km the wear is very little so I think they will last.

Finally time to change my Falken FK510 tyres. Read so many good reviews on this tyre. Was really disappointed. Immediately felt more uncomfortable than the worn off FK510. Much much more noise. Steering feel not as good. Rough roads can be felt n heard through the cabin. The falkens was smooth like butter in all road conditions n handles better. Disappointed overall.

Absolutely phenomenal tyres, fantastic grip in the dry, and really good grip in the wet. I went through a set of fronts on my Swift Sport in around 10,000 miles, and most of that is on backroads so is semi spirited.

My new favorite tires! Excellent overall grip and feel, the car drives like it's on rails and is super quick to inputs. I feel way more confident and aware of the grip ! The only complaint I have is on road noise, which is ridiculously loud, even for a sport tire.

good tyres BUT the quality control is BAD. My 2 out of 4 tyres have a vertical disbalance , meaning the thread is wobbling up and down a tiny bit , which you can feel with speeds 150kmh+ . The wobble is minimal so the reseller will not replace them , but it makes me sad when car is shuddering with high speeds. I am very dissapointed and will never buy these again.
