Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 Reviews - Page 13

Absolutely the best swap out option for BMW Z4 3.0si Coupe from OEM B'Stone run flats. These tires transform the car and make it more supple, yet grippy and communicative. No more tram lining and the ride quality is much improved. The run flats are like wagon wheels in comparison. C'mon, do it, do it now!!!

Great. Tire. in. All Road conditions.... My only problem. with this. Tire. is the loss of. Tire pressure fitted at Kwikfit nitrogen filled but. All 4 Tires lost 6psi. In the first 5. Days. After putting. The tires back to correct. Pressure. It went back down. But after 2. Month. Of refilling. The tires .I have. Noticed. that they. Are only. Losing. 1psi. I. Put. This. Down. To the tires. Not. Holding. On to the. O2. And other. Small. Air particles. In the. Air and that then. Just leaves. The. Nitrogen. In. The. Tires As. Air. Is. 70+ % nitrogen. The problem. Has. All. But gone. Now. Also. Had. Same problem. On wifes'. Car. Fitted. With. GY efficient. Grip. Performance.. that. Also. Stopped. Going. Down. After. 2. Or. 3. Months. Of. Topin up.. I. Hope. This. Helps. Anyone. Having. Similar. Problems. With. There. Newly. Fitted. Tires..

Very good in the wet. Grips in the dry. I loved it so much, bought the same tires for my gf in her 2007 civic type R.

Bought a pair of these tires for the front of my Galaxy, to replace worn Michelin Primcy HP's, which were very good from all angles. I would have replaced like for like if there was not a shortage of HP's at the time I was buying. Bought these for fuel efficieny and grip in the wet (rated C and A respectively), for which they worked very well and were camparable to the michelins. 12000 miles and 18months later however, and I am having to replace both tires due to wear / failing MOT. For a tire costing £180 per corner, I was expecting much more? Maybe my heavy lump of a people carier and mainly country roads took its toll, but in the mean time, I took the primacys from the back and put them on the front, and these were hardly worn, after being dragged around for aprox' 20,000miles or two and a half years. Be interesting to see how much more they start to wear now they are doing the work?

Got to admit to loving these tires. Ditched a whole set of hard, twitchy, tramelining run flats for these. They are much more comfortable, refuse to loosen up in dry weather, and remain stable at high speed! My favourite part is the comfort though. It strikes the best balance between feedback and comfort. Rears appear to be wearing a bit fast, but I'm quite heavy footed. My daily drive is 5 miles countryside, 8 miles motorway, then 4 miles into glorious Sheffield. Would recommend, will definitely buy again. Any BMW owner considering the run flat switch, do it, and you won't regret it.

Why I didn't get rid of those dreadful run-flats earlier I will never know!. Since changing to the Goodyears the Z4 is a completely different car to drive. It no longer tramlines like a b**ch and going into corners at speed holds the road as if it is on rails. If you want to put the fun back into driving your Z4 then bite the bullet and do it, I promise you wont be dissappointed.

I was quite happy with these tires. Dry grip was good and almost equally so in the wet. The sidewalls however felt a little softer than the Conti 5's I had previously which lead to a little stability and more roll in the corners when driving spiritedly. On the plus side, this meant they were slightly quieter than others I've tried. I went back to the Conti 5's after these tires as I felt the slight increase in grip and feedback was worth the extra noise.

Outstanding grip on wet, perfect on dry. Used on a Ford Focus ST225 for 3 years and already changed them and put again the same. I suggest them!

Good grip both wet and dry just watch puddles for the test fantastic

100% recommended

Lets get something clear right from the start. These Goodyears are installed on my rear wheel drive Honda S2000 for the sole purpose of weekend blasts at 98% of its handling limit. I abuse them, but not in the drifting sense, but in all out cornering and braking. When the missus is riding along, that is where the Goodyears take a break....a short break.

Dry Grip: On grippy tarmac you just cant seem to break these tires off unless you do something really crazy. On older, slippery tarmac on a hot day, these tires suffer almost just like any other tires.

Wet grip: Drove on them twice in the rain - above average wet grip, however, wet weather performance is not why I bought the tires for.

Road feedback: Not particularly impressive, probably because these tires are very comfortable, hence dampens road feedback.

Progressiveness: These tires do not snap off at the limit, which is what you need on a razor sharp S2000.

Wear: Horrible, but some credit is due due to the fact that I am running some camber.

Comfort: My lower S2000 is riding far better then the Bridgestones they replaced.

Buy again: Technically yes, but there are so many new ever improving tires out there that it doesnt make sense to buy the same again.

My favourite all round summer tire. Excellent wet performance and very good dry. They wear fairly quickly, but I am always hard on tires so I epect that anyway.

There is lots of rubber available with comparable dry grip, but it's traction in the wet and on just damp roads that sorts the men from the boys. Highly recommended.
