Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 Reviews - Page 7

Given 89% while driving a Audi S3 (225/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 2,000 average miles
Good overall grip, take a bit of time to warm on dry. Feel extremely safe and confident in wet. Slight noise but don't really bother me or affect my ride experience in any way. Great tire overall

I am on my second set of these tires on my Audi. Lots of high-speed highway and country road usage. Grip is amazing, feels slightly less grippy in the wet, but in my opinion this is due to cars' weight. Each set lasts for about 15k miles or 2 years. Road noise is minimal and the feedback even on a cruise ship like mine is pretty good. I bought a BMW Z4 recently and I am looking to get a set of these for the next summer (if there isn't a newer model of course). All in all: great tires for the price, feels secure and predictable. Definitely recommend a purchase

After 15,000km driving over the last year, the goodyears have been stored for winter. I'm very satisfied with their performance. excellent road feedback, grip in all conditions and wear without great sacrifice to comfort levels. 5~6mm of thread left after 15,000km of when off the motorway, spirited driving. Car handles great, would recommend.

Great all round tire! Excellent handling in wet/Damp conditions. I’ve done close to 1000 miles so far and very impressed. Been off roads in farms and down to the blast faces in quarry’s and grip has also been there. Only slight negative is I get a small amount of road noise on that horrible concrete stretch of the M25 (jnc9 to jnc8)

Given 100% while driving a SEAT Leon FR 1.8 180HP (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 30,000 spirited miles
I love these tires that are very inexpensive for the performance. Every spring, when I switched back from winter tires, I bought a pair of new summer tires, upgrading each year until I finally had the F1 Asymmetrics on all four corners. They completely suit the car. Grip, especially in the wet is amazing and they are very comfortable. It's important to make sure that wheel alignment is correct. Unlike winter tires, they won't tolerate any toe out and the effect on steering will be obvious. They can still deliver the performance down to 5 degC but grip, especially if the tires are more than five years old, completely disappears below 3 degC. Currently replaced by a set of All Seasons until the spring.

Given 97% while driving a Subaru 2018 WRX STi (245/35 R19) on a combination of roads for 600 average miles
After doing my research and watching various tire reviews, it was a toss up between PS4s and these, but price and the reviews pointed me to these. Have driven them about 1000km and they are as described on the YouTube Tire Reviews. Great in dry and wet, steering was heavier then the OEM tires (Advan V105) but great road feedback. I wanted to lean towards a more quiet and comfort tire as the Subie had a stiffer than most ride anyway so these were a great match without compromising on the performance side. Nothing to fault at this stage.

Given 84% while driving a Ford Fiesta ST180 (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 8,000 spirited miles
Put these tires on my fiesta st at the start of summer, my first impressions were how much the wet performance improved, it quickly regained my confidence, verry good dry braking and a high resistance to aquaplaning. I took the car to do the nc500 and learned a lot about the tire, when the tire develops some heat the feedback and grip level increases to an ideal level. It has been difficult/ near impossible to overheat the tire on the road it just seems to take whatever is thrown at it with ease. I wouldn't say the steering feel is amazing but it still presents plenty feedback but can be a bit dull at times. Not a comfortable tire to live with on scottish roads but neither is the car but you expect these things

Given 94% while driving a Suzuki Swift (215/40 R17) on a combination of roads for 4,000 spirited miles
Very good in the dry, awesome in heavy rain, operates perfect in all conditions from 2 to 35°C, also udable on trackday at Spreewaldring and Nordschleife tourist laps, transporting my son to Nürburgring, Oschersleben and many more motorsport locations in Germany, the A5 just deliver grip. The wear is astonishing low for this kind of use on my Swift Sport ZC33S for 6000 km. Comfort is good, handling is good too, only the streering feeling could be better. A huge step from the stock tires Conti Sportcontact 5. Would be interesting to know how A5 perform in compare to Yokohama Advan 052.

Having had Premium contacts on this car before, these are slightly less sporty, but a step up in terms of comfort, and the perfect summer tire for a big, relatively powerful barge.

Given 79% while driving a Mazda MX5 (205/45 R16) on track for 3,000 spirited miles
These are fitted to A 2001 Mazda MX5 which sees mostly track days and a little road time. Dry weather performance is phenomenal. Response is razor sharp. Traction is excellent in the dry, good in wet. Braking ability is awesome. Driven roughly 5000km and they are wearing pretty good despite fairly aggressive camber set up. Comfortable these are not. My car has rose joint suspension, I feel every little bump and road noise is bad but I am able to out corner my brother's Mustang. Will most definitely purchase again.

Given 100% while driving a BMW 520d (225/50 R17) on a combination of roads for 30,000 average miles
I have this tires fitted on my 2009 BMW 5 series in 225/50/17 size. After two summers and almost 30k miles with them, it is my favourite tire so far. Excellent grip in both dry and wet. I drove them on a good and pretty equal mix of motorways, country roads, city and national roads, performed incredibly well in all conditions. Under 10 degrees Celsius’s and cold asphalt, the grip is still good on dry but the tire gets a bit hard, which I think is normal for summer tires. They still have about 4mm of thread left, which will be good for another summer then definitely I'll buy them again or next generation of GY F1 Asymmetric Eagle. They don't seem to be noisy at all. I putted a 245/45/17 set on an 2013 E Klasse 220CDI. The handling is predictable in all conditions which gave me confidence every time I was at the wheel.
