Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 Reviews - Page 19

Given 90% while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTI (225/45 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 25,000 average miles
Very good tire for all conditions. Tested on my golf v 280ps.
Very good on wet. No fast wearing , not very noisy. Wanted a little more grippy at dry.

25000 kilometres and only slight wear on the rears, fronts are OK. Mainly motorways. The car feels much stable in the corners. Will buy again!

Best tires for my s2000. The car was shaky in the wet and these tires really helped with oversteer. Would highly recommend and I'll be getting these again for sure.

Given 99% while driving a Volkswagen GOLF MK5 R32 3.2 V6 4MOTION (225/45 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 25,000 spirited miles
Put these on my R32 after reading comments on here !

Boy they transformed the car !

The ride was so quiet and comfy, but wow did they change the handling, stuck like glue

Brilliant tire in all weathers - just wish they did them for my bmw 520d m sport in run flat !

doesn't handle like the R32 0 but is far more economical on juice - but not as much fun to drive !

Excellent all round tire, I used to use Michelin pilot sport 3's which did have better dry grip but they wore quite quickly. The Goodyear is better in the wet, just as good in the dry and lasts longer. Oh and cheaper. Will buy again

Given 68% while driving a Honda Accord (235/45 R18 W) on a combination of roads for 1,000 average miles
Dry Grip: 9/10. Excellent grip for high-speed sharp cornering and braking at 160KM/H
Wet Grip: 8/10. Grips very well too during cornering and sudden hard braking. 160KM/H
Wear: NA. Could not tell much right now.
Comfort: 5/10. Tires is a bit hard, rough and bumpy. At 100km/h, I hardly heard tires noise when tires are new, but the noise become more noticeable after clocking 1000KM. Noise is louder as you go faster. Im am quite disappointed at this.
Buy again: 50 50. It's not the right tires if you're emphasizing more on comfort.
Note: 4 new tires 235/45/R18 fitted on Honda Accord 2010, clocking 1,000 KMS already.

Given 77% while driving a Vauxhall Astra 1.9 cdti 150hp (225/40 R18 W) on mostly country roads for 4,000 spirited miles
Had my fair share of tires and I went with these after reading all the good reviews.
Personally thought they weren't as good as my Khumo's and I've heard the GSD3's are better than the A2's.
But they are a good tire... Just think there's maybe better.

They lasted 4000 miles putting 340lbs of torque down... Which is pretty good considering I drive it like I've stole it!

Car has DAP R springs with Bilstien B8 shocks and a whiteline RARB.
These are safe option to go for... And I would get them again.

Given 91% while driving a Ford Focus ST (225/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 8,000 spirited miles
Fitted to Focus ST and simply brilliant. My ST has 230bhp through the front wheels and no traction control so represents a major challenge for a tire. Some torque steer and occasional scrabbling is inevitable but these babies grip like hell. I've also never experienced a tire which grips and brakes so well in the wet, quite incredible. So much so, that I've lost the back end twice(1 pirreli and 1 dunlop, but well past their best)when cornering on a greasy surface - this from a car which you might normally expect to put its nose out first. Feedback is also notably excellent.8000 miles nad still life in them, despite my very heavy right foot.

Given 51% while driving a Alfa Romeo MiTo (215/45 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 2,000 average miles
I have to admit I was fooled by the good reviews and chose them. They are definitely not sport tires, by the feel they have. At the beginning I thought its me and the new feel of a brand new set of tires comparing to my old ones that were "burned". But no. I tried to adjust pressure but nothing. Whatever I did, they giving the same feeling like driving on balloons. I thought they are brand new, after some hundreds of km might be better but still nothing. I started to suspend even my absorbers but I am persuaded that its only the tires.
Good grip, good comfort, but the sides are like butter and they folding easily. Very disappointed. My previous Continental SC3 were way much better than those.

Given 93% while driving a SEAT LEON 1.8TSI (225/45 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 13 spirited miles
I own a FF car which currently has 230hp and max torque of 345Nm. After 20.000 km on these tires, I really can't say anything negative for them. I was shocked by the level of grip in the wet - light years in front of other similar tires. Same applies to the grip level in the dry - Of course I wasn't shocked but I was really satisfied overall.
Noise level is far lower than anything else I have ever used. In terms of progressiveness, the tires are safe. The offer you enough time between limit and loss of grip. Probably the best performance tire in the market right now.
Would definitely buy them again - No question about it.

Given 87% while driving a Audi A5 (225/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 1,000 easy going miles
Fantastic Tires!....the best I've ever bought. I've used Michelin on my Audi A5, but the drone at high speeds was unbearable...but these tires just give a very low grumble when youre going over rough Tarmac...which is fine. You get much better grip and consequently acceleration.
