Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance

Good tires, wearing is quite acceptable. They lasted from 2020 on mountain roads and highways, city daily driving so around 45000 kilometers and still 5000 kms before being exhausted at the front.
I appreciated their comfort with the noise: good with my Nissan Leaf 2.
On dry surface, they miss a bit of traction to support the 350 NM from the electric motor.
On wet surface, they miss a LOT of traction, they rip very easily.
Appart from traction, they are ok, not a sport tire but pretty much enough to keep you secure.

Awesome tires, I was very happy with those.
Quiet, comfy, gripped and stopped well.
Made a 2003 Seat Leon feel like a premium vehicle, lasted for 7 years and still had more than 4 mm on each.

Hi:) bought these tires a month ago to replace Michelin primacy 4 plus will compare with them. Goodyear efficientgrip performance 1 compared to Michelin - so in my opinion on a dry road they hold better. Rolling Resistance are little better than Michelin. I like the feedback on the steering wheel and the braking distance on dry roads better on Goodyear. Goodyear they are more comfortable and fuel consumption is the same as on Michelin (no difference noticed). And now let's move to the disadvantages of these tires - on the wet road they hold worse and braking distance is worse than Michelin, they wear out a little faster but for their price they are normal (they are cheaper than Michelin). Let's move to the results for dry road for me Goodyear will be better, and for wet road it is better to take Michelin.

These Goodyears came factory-fitted on my second-hand Golf Alltrack. On both motorways and in city driving, in wet or dry conditions, they perform fairly well, giving a comfortable ride and showing little wear after three seasons. (Most likely, the previous owner also used a dedicated set of winter tires.)

On winding B-roads, the first thing I noticed compared to my previous car, which had Falken ZIEX ZE310 EcoRun tires fitted based on reviews here, is that the Goodyears provide noticeably less feedback about how much grip the front axle has. The Golf in its Estate/Alltrack form is naturally understeer-biased and not the sharpest choice for quick driving, even with dynamic suspension in Sport mode, but with these tires you don’t really feel how much grip is left when cornering and can sometimes be caught off guard by the amount of understeer.

Dry braking performance also leaves something to be desired. The car itself feels like it could brake harder and more precisely, but the tires make the response feel a bit vague and muted.

OE tire on a VW ID3. Very unusual tire for me. In terms of NVH, they show excellent comfort and are whisper quiet.

In terms of driving dynamics, they are suprisingly peaky on the limit of grip of the rear axle. With the RWD electric ID3, when torque is applied in a turn, a sudden oversteer happens with audible screeching. The limit of grip is hard to navigate and makes the rear axle of the car slightly unstable under spirited driving, with plenty of ESP intervention. The front axle has a better stability but with still quite low grip limit on turns, with understeer appearing progressively. The tires can be scary on straight heavy braking at speed by they low general level of grip making the heavy electric ID3 longer to stop than I anticipated, even on perfectly dry roads.

In the wet, these imperfections are magnified, making the car unsafe to drive sportily and imposing a more relaxed style.

I would personnal opt for a more performance oriented tire as a replacement. The balance is set too far on the side of efficency for the tire to be suitable for my use on country roads. The safety feels compromised in the wet.

I bought these tires as an efficient but premium replacement to the Michelin PS4's that I had on prior, and I was really disappointed. I bought these through KwikFit as they were A for Fuel and B for Wet Grip so they looked like a great option. However, the tires were less grippy in the wet and dry compared to the PS4 and I noticed cracking between the tread and along the edge of the sidewall. My car is a Mk8 Fiesta ST which does a lot of motorway miles but has the odd sprint on a backroad, these tires (nor the car) have ever been used on track and the cracks appeared quickly on the front pair and also eventually after a few months they appeared throughout the back pair of tires. I had the front ones changed prematurely due to my concern about the structural integrity of the tire. I complained and sent them back to KwikFit and they said they would send on to Goodyear for investigation, however after numerous chase-ups and calls I never received a verdict or a refund.

Maybe it's my fault for going with a more efficient tire over something like a Michelin or Continental UHP tire but I can confidently say these tires are not a high performance tire and do not have the longevity I have come to expect from the PS4's before it and the Continental PremiumContact 7's that I replaced them with.

Tires are very silent, do not loose pressure and feel very safe both in dry and wet asphalt. It is the second time that my car "wears" these tires and I will surely continue to prefer them.

sturdy tires. able to handle the harsh environment of Egypt ( 40c + temperatures)
and the badly maintained roads .
No issues so far, can handle anything you throw at them but at the cost of comfort.

Only have the tires little over 31k miles; since new and the face of all 4 tires are now showing cracks. Very poor quality, felt cheap when passing bumpers. I drive a Corolla as daily and there is no way i mistreated these tires with spirited driving. Very dissapointed

This tire is so horrible that I finally motivate myself to write a review in public in order to save people's money or even life. 3 years ago the rear tires were worn so changed from pc6 to this thing (front remains as pc6 even till now). By the way, I have never been a fussy person and always keep low profile; I actually never thought I'd one day write anything about rubber that touches road in public. Anyway, back in 2021 when I got the discounted egp and brought them to my garage, the guy told me after he changed the tires he tested drive quite some distance because he "still couldn't figure out where the wobbling came from." He suspected his craftsmanship at first but he also cast doubt at the new tires, "but they are gy they are supposed to be good...," he also murmured. Told him I'm not pro I just need tires that run fine and took my car home. Unfortunately, gradually I began to understand what he tried to say.....this soft profile like many have reported is very discouraging and rendered zero driving pleasure. The old-school inline-6 can easily hit 200 km/h and still got room to raise its speed, but with this egp in the rear this never happened again. Not because of power loss but the feeling at 200 was just horrible. Even around 120-160 the wobbling dissuades me from any steering other than slight lane change steer. I feel like I'm done if there comes any incident that requires me to react bigger. These tires are only suitable for granny's panda. Last summer the tire puncture alert suddenly came on when I was on road. And what a surprise, guess front pc6 or rear egp ;) unbelievable quality that rear tire got puncture when the 7-year-old front didn't. While the worst yet to come. Couple weeks ago so unlucky when I left for the office it started to snow, but not blizzard snow here is always mild. Passing through a lane that linked to a roundabout where I drive everyday, a mild 40km/h was not possible for the car to stop at the roundabout so the nosy abs kicked in and staggered the car, and eventually kissed the front car. I was frightened and lost confidence in my car, thinking the brake was malfunctioned. But brought her to the garage and they say the brake was just great. So it was tire. Yet this darn thang never happened when I got 4 pc6 on road, btw I was aware of snow and there is neither piled snow nor ice, just a snow fall started, melted once it touches ground that kind. In the end I tried to confirm it myself, I fingered the surface of the tires, felt obvious difference, that pc6 was abrasive while egp was slippery, especially in cold days ~0 degC. Don't ever think gy can bail itself out from me by saying "hey but it was snowing", or "hey it was 0 degC you were supposed to use winter tires!" Such a high-end brand producing a product with such marginal capability, shame on you. In contrast, why conti's summer products didn't screw me eh? Conclusion: this stuff is only for people without any slightest fast and furious element in his gene. Otherwise its marginal capability will mislead you and has you encounter accident sooner or later.

September 2023 DO NOT BUY these tires if you expect to have them fitted longer than 4 to 5 years. I have had 2 pairs, the first in 2015, the second in 2018. ALL tires developed cracks (dry rot?) in the shoulder around the full circumference in 4 to 5 years (around 20,000miles). I have been driving 45 years, 21 of them in my C5 now at 192,000miles. These Goodyears are the only tires I have ever needed to replace with 3 to 4mm tread remaining! So, very poor value.

I bought the tire for my 2012 model opel astra j gtc. I did not like its performance in the rain, it slips when I brake and skids even at moderate throttle response. Its performance in dry conditions is average. I was torn between Falken z310 Ecorun and wish I had bought it.

one of best smooth tire and comfort , i try most comfort tire but this tire is the best , handling olso good but not the best i thing bridgiston t005a better in handling

i try this tire in 2 years 60,000km and he is good and very comfort

Tires at 4 years old and 17k miles vehicle failed annual test due to cracks/perishing of the tires. Plenty of tread left.
