Questions and Answers for the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3
Ask a questionIs it true that asymmetric 3 has a smaller rim protection than asymmetric 2?
When can we expect a test with the pilot sport 4, sport contact 6 and the asymmetric 3?
<br />
The best test so far this year is the <a href="http://www.tirereviews.co.uk/Article/2016-GTU-Performance-Summer-Tire-Test.htm">GTU test</a>, however that missed the Michelin.
Is it true the side wall height has increased on the 3 vs the 2?
Will the 3 be N rated for Porsche, Cayman GTS specifically, like the 2?
is the goodyear F1 AS3 directional
What does 94y and 98y mean and what is the differance
I have Swift Sport 1.6 and I would like to replace my tires with either Dunlop Sport Maxx RT2 or Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric. They are similar but I can't decide. Could you help me ?
I am about to purchase either Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance or this Asymmetric 3. I think the Efficientgrip is the older design yet has the better fuel efficiency and same wet braking distance. I am surprised by this. It is also cheaper by £10 from Blackcircles. Does the labeling stay consistent such that you can compare older tyer designs against new ones. Why would you buy the Asymmetric 3 over the Efficientgrip? I drive a 2010 Ford Focus 2.0l diesel and do about 22000 miles per year.
I have Lotus Elise s2 sport 135. Its never used on track just occassional road use. Following a blow out on a rear Bridgestone pirenza I am considering replacement tires with the Goodyear eagle F1 Assyimetric 3. What is your opinion
I've had the Goodyear asym 2's on my old bmw z4 which were a superb drive although did have to change them fairly often. Now I've got a Toyota gt86 and considering the Goodyear asym 3, Michelin pilot sport 4, or the kumho ku39's? Any advice between them?
Where are the Goodyear asy 3 tires made ?
Hello, tell me when choosing tires efficientgrip performance and asymmetric 3 for durability what will be better?
I am about to renew the front tires on my 2014 Ford Focus st. The car came with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 tires. Should I stick with those or go for the Asymmetric 3 tires.
Are these run flat tires?
I have Honda Civic 1.8 8th gen on 225/40/R18 XL. Bridgestone Potenza on front, Michelin PS3 rear. Rears due for replacement soon. I want to improve ride comfort, Thinking of putting Potenzas on rear and new Goodyear Asymmetrical 3 or Pirelli P Zero PS4 on front. Which of these tires would give best comfort? Is there much difference as far as comfort is concerned between them? Would handling be significantly affected by having stiffer walled Potenzas on the rear, requiring all tires to be replaced
Hi I'm from Australia and have a BMW F20 125i M Sport on 18 " Bridgestone Potenza RFT that need replacing- I'm thinking of changing to non-RFT (plus repair kit) due to NVH/ride issues (especially on our roads) 1. My local tire place suggests non-RF Goodyear Eagle F1 AS3- as first line on the drivers door sill plate reads '225/40 R 18 92 M&S XL' and according to him the G/Ys are only ones rated as 'extra load'. Do you think this is the best tire to reduce NVH and improve ride (I don't mind the trade-off) 2. Another dealer stated that the XL isn't as important as the '92' load rating which opens the options to range of other tires e.g. Pirelli P Zeros; Continentals; Michelin PSS. Is this correct, and if so which would you choose if the priority is to reduce NVH and improve ride? Many thanks Andrew
Looking at getting some 215/45/17s for my car. Some websites show XL rated on the 91Y tires some don't. Are they all XL tires or are some not?
Buying the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 (J) XL 245/40R19 replacing Bridgestone Potenza RE05A which replaced Bridgestone Turanza T001. This is in Australia for my Holden Calais VF V Sedan. (1) Is the Goodyear a good replacement? (2) Is Asymmetric 3 the same tire as Asymmetric 3 (J) XL.
I am in a dilemma because I need tires in the size 245/45 R18 100Y XL and the label scores of the asymm 3 B/A/68 are better than the scores of the asymm 5 C/A/72 but in your and in other reviews the asymm 5 performs better. Are these scores biased or false? In what results should I trust?
What are these tires like in snow and icy conditions, thank you.
what tire should I use for my Audi Q5 2009 3.0TDI with 255/45R20 rims? The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 255/45 R20 101V spec or the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 SUV 255/45 R20 105 W XL spec?
Can anyone tell me the difference between the Good Year F1 AS3 245/35/20 95Y * Moe and the 245/35/20 95Y *Moe REV1 ?
I have a BMW X5 f15 model, I like the Goodyear and eagle f1 and the Michelin latitude sport. The Michelin is design for SUV’s, the Goodyear does not say it is but by looking at the reviews it is as good. Which one should I choose? Are both star rated by BMW?
Hi I just bought asym 3 ROF 275/35/19 and I’m just a bit concerned if I have been sold part worn as the tread ranged from 6.0 to 6.7 mm on them. What should the mm be for new ones?
Can I mix the Goodyear Eagle F1 AS3 (front pair 19”) with the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport (rear pair 20”) on a G87 M2? All bought new and fitted together.

Drivers largely praise the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 for its balanced performance, strong dry and competent wet grip, quiet/comfortable ride, and notably good tread life for many users, with numerous high-scoring reviews citing big improvements over OE or rival tires. A recurring minority note softer sidewalls leading to vague steering/less precision, inconsistent wet confidence for some, and faster wear or sidewall issues in a subset of cases. Overall sentiment is strongly positive given the high volume of >80% scores.

Latest Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 Reviews
They simply fit to my car and driving style perfectly. After 34000 miles there is still 3mm left. Dry handling gets better once they warm up and in wet conditions they do just as good. Quiet and comfortable as well.
Good tires for the price. Those are the least problematic to balance from all my previous tires (dunlop rt2 - worn 80% in 15-20k miles , GY efficient grip, Toyo sport - the worst to balance).
When used in regular commute and highways the are perfect. Handling is good in wet and dry conditions. when pushed to max, they keep the pace, but it is clear that the stiffness is missing a bit in corners (when pushing to the limit).
