Worst tire that I had.
She came with the car and was put on the rear axle.
1) Dry grip is poor. With a sharp acceleration tires constantly slip. Even at speed.
2) Wet grip is life threatening. With a minimal push of gas, a skid occurs. Feeling like you're riding on ice.
3) Noisy.
4) Heavy and tough. Extremely low level of comfort.
5) The side protection performs decorative functions.
6) Extremely high fuel consumption.
7) Only one plus - long wear.
The tread is fine, but I'll take them off - my life is more expensive.

A very poor choice of tire, road noise is terrible, wet handling is awful.the only positives of this tire is they wear well, but that is it, obviously they are cheap for a reason!!!!
I used to have eagle f1 assy on my car and I will definately be going back to them for my next set of 4 tires .they just have very poor grip,whether its wet or dry.i guess I expected to much from the the tire,but in my opinion,if you I've your driving and at times can be enthusiastic,then this is definately not the tire for you,as I have found out....And as stated earlier,the tire noise at slow speeds etc is terrible.I will be a happy man when these tires need replacing,the are shockingly poor in all driving conditions,well unless you are a Sunday driver,but then you will have to endure the noise!!!
Well that's my opinion anyway

New fitted on rx8 231 soon real wear rate yet. Grip is comparable with avons previously fitted, possibly better. Ride seems slightly more pliant but seems good as soon as you turn in, flat cornering and no sudden breakaway. Only fitted on rears at present so I can't give opinion on steering feel yet.
