Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport R

The Eagle F1 SuperSport R further increases grip levels and steering precision on and off track when compared to the SuperSport. Grip levels are enhanced through use of a high-friction compound that provides exceptional dry grip levels, while excellent cornering stability is ensured by bridges in the tread pattern’s inner groove reducing deformation of tread blocks under extreme cornering forces. Steering precision and feedback have also been further enhanced by optimizing the tire’s footprint for more consistent pressure distribution.

The BEST Track Day Tires for 2024
3rd of 6 tires
  • The Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport R (N0) has the best wet braking performance of all six tires. It has slightly less responsive steering and is not quite as precise as the other two.
  • Despite its good wet braking, it fails in wet handling, which can be really dangerous.
  • The Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport R (N0) delivered a mixed bag of experiences for drivers. On one hand, the tire provided exceptional wet braking performance, offering the shortest stopping distances of any tire tested. However, this seemed to come at the expense of wet handling, where the Supersport R struggled to match the confidence and stability of its competitors. In dry conditions, drivers found the tire to be responsive and grippy, but noted a slightly less direct steering feel compared to the Michelin and Pirelli offerings. Overall, the Supersport R was praised for its braking performance, but left some drivers wanting more in terms of overall balance and handling finesse.

Questions and Answers for the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport R

2021-11-02 - Hey, which tire pressure would you recommend for an e90 m3 on a track like the nordschleife or zandvoort? Till now I have only experience with ps cup 2 . These i used with 2,1 warm squared. Maybe you can make any recommendations for 245/265 35 19 ?! Thanks in advance..

I've not done much work with the SuperSport R so unfortunately can't tell you how they compare with the Cup 2. I'd probably start around the same then work them down rather than up if you feel there's grip left on the table!

Top 3 Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport R Reviews

Mitsubishi (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 900 average miles
Excellent tire in the dry. with stiff sidewall!

Given 69% while driving a BMW E92 M3 (265/35 R19) on mostly country roads for 1,000 spirited miles
Very good tire in terms of feeling and progressivity. Easy to slide and very predictable. Low traction by low temperature (below 15° Celsius), needs proper warm up to grip. Not faster than road speed limits under the rain, but not scary. Wears quickly if you use them often on the limit, which the tire pushes you to do!

Given 81% while driving a Renault Megane III RS Trophy (275cv) (225/45 R17) on track for 1,000 spirited miles
From the beginning you feel the stiffnes of the structure. They are difficult just to place on the rim (keep in mind, good tools needed). Driving you really feel everyithing from below. Grip is quite good, but at the limit it drops quite fast, there is not such a good transition. They are still predictible, but it is a little more difficult to be consistent on a good lap time. In dry they warm up quite quickly and may require some pressure adjustment on track to avoid having too high air pressure. In these cases the tire starts sliding a lot. On the other side, no much heat is needed in case of rain and if there is not much water they have quite a good grip. The outside longitudinal channels should go closing with tire wear, so I expect some more reduction in aquaplaing performance. Comfort is not what they were ment for. Suprisingly they are more noisy as new than after a couple of trackdays. Wear: they are not the softer ones and they not really get like glue, so the initial feeling is that they may give some reasonalbe milage. In summary, a plus for the decent grip when cold, I like to steering feeling within the limit. Just not completely convinced from the feeling when the grip break (91Y load-speed codes)
