Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 235/45 R18 94 Y FP, N0

Brand new tyres in size 235/45 R18 XL 98V fitted at the beginning of April 2014. Now its end of August and after doing around 15K km tyres needs to be changed. Especially the once for the back axle. Generally tyres are quiet and breaking on the wet surfaces is perfect, however I didn’t feel confident, if it comes to the handling. Been at the garage few times to check if ther is everything ok with a suspension and traction. I was slightly disappointed as my Ford S-Max 240 BHP behave on road like old Laguna. My previous tyres from Continental were much better, last longer and more safe to drive. Read more Collapse

Tyres fitted to BMW 530 d 193 km, front 235/45/17and rear 255/40/17. Drivers who read these opinions mostly look for savings wondering if it is worth buying premium tires or maybe a middle class with similar performance. Well, it is worth buying these tyres.... BUT due to the fast wear, I do not recommend them for people who want to show a friend nice tyres, because after two seasons about 40,000 wear is significant. Generally, the tyres hold well while cornering. I do not judge braking on dry because even budget class has decent performance. The wet tyres are perfect. Despite the large width floating on the road is felt to some extent for sure, but I do not know any scale in which I could describe it. Driving with children; safety is a priority for me a few hundred more for a set is for me, no expense in emergency, emergency braking, etc. because that's how you need to look at such extreme situations that happen relatively rare, but still ... happen and what ?? these few meters of shorter braking distances have the enormous importance.

I've had these on a few cars since thier launch and have been great on all, in all conditions. Yes there are slighty better road holding tyres but last half the life, yes there are slighty better wet condition tyres but last half the life. There are longer life tyres but don't expect to stay on the black stuff too long of you push hard ! These are the best all round tyre I've come accross for years, really rate them and will use them until something better comes along, if something better comes along ! The only other tyre that is as good as this especially considering price (not the most important factor by a long mile in my opinion) is the Vredistien Vorti Sessenta, I'd have those if the F1s were'nt available.

This is 2nd time I have purchased these tyres but the 1st time for my Astra. The 1st set I bought was for my previous car which was a Civic 2 door Type S. (17 inch) On the Civic, they were the only tyres I ever had which were any good in the dry and the wet. All the other tyres I tried were rubbish in comparison and compromised in one way or another. I bought the same tyres for the Astra on the strength of how good they were on the Civic. I am not disappointed. I've had them on for 14K km and they have been great all round especially in the wet. In the dry the car handles like it is on rails. Next time I need tyres I will be replacing them with the same Goodyear tyres. Read more Collapse
