Most drivers praise the Bridgestone Potenza Sport for exceptional dry and wet grip, sharp steering response, and confident handling, often rivaling or beating Michelin PS4/PS4S. However, many report fast wear, higher noise, firmer ride, and reduced grip when cold; track use often accelerates degradation. Overall sentiment is strongly positive given the high number of top scores.

Drivers largely praise the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport for exceptional dry grip, sharp steering response, and strong heat resistance that holds up on spirited drives and trackdays, with many noting good wear for a UUHP when driven hard. Wet grip is generally good but less confidence-inspiring than top wet performers, and comfort/noise are firmer and louder than touring options. Overall sentiment is strongly positive with standout dry performance and feedback, while minority concerns cite rapid wear on some vehicles and reduced traction in cold/damp conditions.
Based on 58 reviews with an average rating of 84%
In conclusion the Bridgestone Potenza Sport performed better in dry braking, dry handling [km/h], wet braking, wet handling [s], wet handling [km/h], wet circle, straight aqua, curved aquaplaning, subj. comfort, price and rolling resistance, while the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport performed better in dry handling [s], subj. dry handling, subj. wet handling and subj. noise.
Interestingly, both tires performed equally well in dry handling, wet handling and noise, showing that they are closely matched in these areas.
Which tire is best for you depends a lot on your driving style and situation, plus what you want from the tire. Comparing all the data in the tire reviews database, on balance Bridgestone Potenza Sport seems to be the best tire overall.
However, it's important to note that both tires have their strengths.
Remember, the best tire for you might depend on which of these factors are most important for your specific driving needs and conditions.
Looking for more tire comparisons? Here are other direct comparisons involving these tires:
This page has been developed using tire industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tires in the same test.
Why is this important? Tire testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tire test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tire tests performed on different days or at different locations.
As a result you will see other tests on Tire Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.
Lots of other websites do this sort of tire comparison, Tire Reviews doesn't.
