Latest Tire Test Results

2022 Tire Reviews 17 Inch Summer Tire Test - 1st of 9 tires

  • Positive - Sporty dynamic handling and excellent grip in the dry with the shortest dry braking, short wet braking with a very fast wet handling lap, lowest noise on test, lowest rolling resistance on test (of the UHP tires.)
  • Negative - Low aquaplaning resistance, average comfort.
  • Overall - The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 is another impressive tire from Goodyear, building on what we already loved from the Asym 5 while improving the dry braking and considerably lowering the rolling resistance and noise levels. Unfortunately this has come at the expense of worse aquaplaning resistance, but as it's one of the few tires that can combine good levels of grip in the dry and wet with low rolling resistance, while still retaining sporty feeling handling, the Asymmetric 6 is still leading the way in the ultra high performance segment.

Questions and Answers for the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6

2022-08-14 - Has anyone compared these to the supersports? Currently running f1 supersports all round on a vauxhall astra mk5 vxr, 280bhp front wheel drive, tempted to give these a try as the car is only a daily with occasional spirited back road driving, one thing that made me go for the supersports was the firm sidewall as I previously ran rainsport 3s and the handling was terrible due to the soft sidewalls so not wanting to loose the sidewall feeling of the supersports

We've not directly compared the Asym 6 to the F1 SuperSport but he educated guess is that while the asymmetric 6 will feel miles better than the RainSport 3 - a tire notoriously soft on the sidewall, the F1 SuperSport should still have the edge in dry handling. These will be better in the wet, more comfortable etc.

2022-05-30 - Does this tire work on an M135 xdrive (2013) with serial wheels (summer)?

If you can find the size needed then the Asymmetric 6 will be a good match for your M135.

Amazing tire, I replaced a Pirelli P7 run flats with these and although it is an unfair to compare them as they are totally different from one another, the difference is night and day. The comfort is now at a different level, the noise levels are significantly lower, the dry and wet grip are amazing too. It was between them and and the Michelin ps5 , but I’ve had the previous model asymmetric 5 and I really liked them, not to mention the price difference. Initial feel is good and I like them a lot , happy with the purchase . More to follow.

I moved from the Asymmetric 5 to the new Asymmetric 6 a few weeks back, and while I don't know about wear, everything else seems better. The handling is improved and noise in the car lower.

Changing from F1SS to F1A6. I could not hit the limit of F1SS, its handlig was too good for me. F1A6 gives me more quiet and comfortable feeling than F1SS, with handling not less than F1SS I drived.

After driven 5000 km all in dry conditions , I really dont know what the manufactuer had on their goals when they plan this tire but definately its not an UHP tire at all. Grip is ok but for a fresh new tire is expected but pretty much an understering apears when cornerning. Braking is ok but not something extraordinary .Tested at a bit high speed after a little hard braking the car seems to behave unsteable (lower the front edge too much). Although i drive a car with a sport suspension, due to the way the design of the tire to increase the impact patch during turnings, braking, or passing roads malfactions the tire behave as an extra suspension in uncordination and as the tread is soft the car feels unsteable again. So i prefer driving far away from the car limits because i am confident on how the tire reacts . The only positive i see is that it is very comfort tire with low noise soft and light with low rolling resistance and less fuel consumsion. At the end this is not a sporty tire and with less wear than As5.

I have 225 45 r17 asymmetrical size 6, the tires are quite quiet, but the comfort is terrible, it is difficult, do not buy if you want comfort. But if you want full performance, the best tire you can buy is already #1 in the test. Dry cornering performance and dry braking performance are legendary. They do very well in wet conditions. Uhp katogeri's best tire in 2022.

Changing from Goodyear F1SS to F1A6, the F1A6 gives me more comfort and quiet feeling, very good tires, and I love to drive everyday to enjoy the new F1A6.

I have an E36 and I use them for the front tires and I can say that there is something wrong with the production of the new tires, it does not feel close to the Asymmetric 5 and not close to the PS4 This tire behaves like a completely normal Chinese tire, I only do drifts with the vehicle It is best to go back to Asymmetric 5 or switch to another brand

Just gone from Bridgestone potenza sport to these as they wore out to quickly but were the better tire when going for it the sidewall on the asymmetric 6 are to soft and flex to much on high speed corners leading to the care getting unsettled and understeer whereas the Bridgestone didn't but the asymmetric 6 are better in the wet quieter better feedback and wear a lot slower

Changed from worn Hankook Icept Evo2 winter tires to new Goodyear Eagle F1 Asym 6, so it is "apples to oranges". However, the difference is larger than I expected. Comfort (with a sporty suspension) is so much better that it almost feels like the difference to smaller rims. Road noise: significantly reduced and immediately noticeable. Handling feels very grippy. Comparison to P Zero summer tires from last year (~50% worn) is more difficult, but from my memory, the Pirellis were not as comfortable and didn't have such an enjoyable feeling to drive like the Goodyears.
