Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 Reviews - Page 6

Given 100% while driving a BMW 120i M Sport (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 15 average miles
Incredible grip in the wet, incredible grip in the dry. awesome wet braking, awesome dry braking. Impressive comfort, very, very long durability. For me the best tire I've ever had. A lot of work is ahead of the other premium brands to improve these.

I have an E36 I drove on the front tires, excellent grip, precise control and the tire is just perfect for drift to the front set

I wanted to write this review after having Asymmetric 5 for quite a few miles. I have 20,000 miles on them and I think it is time to sit down and share my feelings. These tires fit my car from the start like gloves. Exceptional grip in wet and dry. In the wet they always warn you before reaching the limit. They have incredible reactivity. I have used some well-known brand and I can say without hesitation that "in my car" they do not come close to the sensations of the Asymmetric 5. The tires themselves make your driving style adapt to them. I can't say they are the best on the market. It would be lying. What if I can say without hesitation that in this measure and in this segment you will not find anything so balanced in everything. They do not disappoint at all. Just watch the Tirereviews video and you'll understand what I'm saying. the Asymmetric 6 can only beat it in wet braking. But it is that the Asymmetric 5 have an exceptional braking.!! In my country I bought them for a cost of €75 each, to compare say that the PS4 cost €106. Little to doubt when I have to change them, I will return for the Asymmetric 5. Also say that like everything in life my opinion is subjective. These are perfect for my car and may not be enough for yours. In my case grip, braking, driving sensation and comfort and duration are impressive. I hope that my review if you are thinking of putting them in your car has been useful to you. Put them without hesitation

Wasn't a fan of these tires at all. Seemed to be very poor in dry handling compared to what I had seen in reviews and terrible in the wet. Worn down quickly aswell. Changed out for a set PS4 and much prefer these. Honestly wouldn't get the Asymmetric 5's again.

I used use Goodyear Ay3, and P-zero. My own opinion that Ay5 less wet grip than Ay3. Brake is same. (Dry and wet), dry grip better. It’s quiet and comfortable.

Great grip in wet and dry conditions. Tire feels slightly spungy on turn in and gives little feedback, however grip is always there. 10 k Miles and 5-6 mm tread remaining.

Given 90% while driving a BMW M135i (245/35 R18) on a combination of roads for 15,000 spirited miles
Excellent tires, best I've had on a car so far. My M135i had Michelin Pilot Super Sports (MPSS) when I bought it and these were grippier in the dry, however in the wet they were bordering on dangerous. The MPSS gave very little feedback in the wet and you could easily find yourself sideways putting the power down in 3rd going around a gentle bend on a dual carriageway! Changing to Goodyear Eagle Asymmetric completely changed the behaviour of the car in the wet. Predictable, easy to control on the limit (or slightly beyond), lovely tires. They wear well too, I've just had 15000 miles out of a rear set and I drive around with the traction control fully off all the time (LSD on the back). Still good grip in the dry, but I do admit less grippy in the dry than the MPSS were. All round the Goodyear Eagle Asymmetric can't be beaten in my view. I'd love to try another brand but I tried that before and they were much worse, so I'm not going to risk it!

Given 77% while driving a Volkswagen (B8) 1.4 TSI (150 Hp) DSG ACT (205/40 R17) on mostly country roads for 3,000 spirited miles
Went from a set of rapid budget tires which came on the car to these and I was shocked. I never knew a car could handle so well on a set of premium tires. they transformed the handling and grip of the car, they honeslty feel like you are on rails when driving on these tires. Only issue i have had is that the life of the tire is extremely short, although i do alot of backroad driving and spirited drives. I only managed to squeeze about 3 months and 3000 miles out of these tires. i am about t replace them and will consider using them again however may go michelin. Overall i do reccomend these tires if you are in the market.

I rarely uses back the same tire models as i enjoys trying out different make and models, but this is the first time for me to replaced a worn out set with the same mode. No issue handling 440NM on a FF on the straight and corners. Comfortable cruising as a family car too. And most importantly, the pricing is very competitive, costing 30% lower than the PS4.

These are a very comfortable tire that are great in the dry and cabin noise is low. However they really struggle to put power down in the wet and my tires started perishing after just 18 months. They were replaced under warranty but i would not buy them again.
