Across driver feedback, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 is widely praised as a confidence-inspiring UHP summer tire with standout wet grip, strong dry grip/braking, and a noticeably quieter, more comfortable ride than many OEM-fit rivals (especially when replacing run-flats). Many owners also highlight stable high-speed manners, predictable breakaway, and reduced tramlining. The most consistent drawbacks are faster-than-expected wear for some drivers and a softer sidewall feel that can reduce steering sharpness, with a notable subset also reporting sidewall bulges/damage sensitivity on rough, pothole-prone roads (particularly with run-flat fitments).

These are the best tires I have driven on in over forty years.They are quiet, have no issues with balancing,and fuel economy has improved both towing(caravan) and solo.Grip on the road is excellent and a softer ride absorbing uneven road conditions.
Cannot say how long they will last only done 2000 miles but to be honest all the positives make this a great tire.
So far I've done 10,000km on these with little to no wear visible. They hang on well through hard cornering, are very stable at high speed all the while being quiet and comfortable. They also pulled my car up well before rear ending an Audi in front when I thought there was no chance I would stop in time.

My car is a FWD 2.0L naturally aspirated mazda 6. Been using this for 20k km. This tire grips very well in both wet and dry.
Instilled confidence in my driving. Would buy again if I have the budget. Awesome tires, no regrets.
I replaced all 4 tires last Autumn and have now done about 8500 miles since. These tires made a big difference to steering, breaking and road noise on my Volvo S60 (185bhp) and I have been more than safisfied with them. As yet I have been unable to determine any wear to the tread!
Markedly better in almost every way than the Bridgestone Potenzas I had on before, especially in the wet. Couldn't quite believe the difference to be honest. I've done just over 19,000 miles on them and the fronts are only just down to 2mm - and I'm not the world's most economic driver ;)
Road noise isn't the best but I'm running 45 profiles so it's never going to be great. Will be buying these again without hesitation, when needed.
Replaced the wood tires, sorry, Potenza run flats, with these. Actually thought I was driving a different car. The difference in ride quality is unbelievable. Sheffield potholes are renown for being the worst in the UK, hitting them in 19" 30 profile tires is absolutely frightening. Also gone are the really scary moments hitting a pothole, or even cats eye, on a bend at speed and finding yourself a couple of foot from where you want to be. Not tried them in the wet yet, but I'm glad I trusted the other reviews so far. Full set cost £700 vs over £1000 for RF's. Only other cost, large can of tireweld, £10.
I bought these Eagle F1 Assymetric 2 tires based on comments/ reviews from this website and apart from a lightness of steering and a slightly smoother ride the noise levels are quite a bit higher than the Dunlop 255/35/19 SP SPORT MAXX GT tires I had before- so to some extent I'm a bit dissapointed with the noise of the tire but time will tell.
At present I miss the Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT tires quietness even though I had done 48Klms on them the grip and feel was great even in the we despite comments I've read , there is less "feel" on these Goodyear tires although there is less railing as well and drag on cornering too.
I fitted a pair to the rear axle of the car last month, and what an improvement over the P6000s that were OEM fitted. The walls of the F1s are noticeably more flexible than the P6000s, so no surprises that the ride on pockmarked British roads is improved. Admittedly, UK spec S60s are quite firm in the suspension, but the added compliance in the tire really compliments the car. In terms of grip, all I can report is that come rain or shine the car has felt securely planted, even on wet and knobbly A roads. I will be sourcing up two more in due course for the front axle. I think that the F1s ride more quietly than the P6000s too. Drive carefully!
Having been able to buy what I consider one of the top drivers car, the E92 335d remapped by BMW to approx. 320bhp (sensible upgrade being 50 an all), I have replaced the Bridgestone Potenza runflats to the Goodyear Eagle F1 asymmetrics 2 and the difference is simply outstanding. Its early days yet, but ride home tonight through the bumpy B roads of Berkshire and South Oxfordshire was transformed! Gone was the jarring, almost bone shaking vibrations coming through the chassis; the roar of tires drowning out the sumptuous whine of the twin turbos and replaced with what? Imagine the sound of grip and have that coming in through the impossibly long drivers window; the isolation of each bump into the corners of the chassis and suspension so that a front nearside pothole is only felt as an echo through the frame on the drivers side. I was wearing them in so haven't tested near limits yet but so far very impressed and I can honestly say that my car has been transformed into a near perfect setup
