Test Results

Independent comparison tyre tests are the best source of data to get tyre information from, and the good news is there have been twelve tests which compare both tyres directly!

Out of these twelve tests:

  • Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 finished ahead of the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 in five of the tests
  • Michelin Pilot Sport 4 finished ahead of the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 in six of the tests
  • The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 and Michelin Pilot Sport 4 drew in one of the tests

While it might look like the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 is better than the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 purely based on the higher number of test wins, tyres are very complicated objects which means where one tyre is better than the other can be more important in real world use.

Let's look at how the two tyres compare across multiple tyre test categories.

Dry Braking

Looking at data from nine tyre tests, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 was better during eight dry braking tests. On average the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 stopped the vehicle in 1.73% less distance than the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5.

First opinions on new Pilot Sport 4

I have today (11/01/16) received some of the first available Pilot Sport 4's in the UK. They are to replace my worn out Goodyear Eagle ASY 2's on the rear of my GAD Tuned C250 Cdi.

I will review again in a few weeks when I have had chance to thoroughly try the tyre out, however my initial observations are as follows:

Aesthetic appeal: They look good and sit well on the rims, a pleasant development over the PS3, both in tread pattern and sidewall appearance, without being 'over the top'.

Footnote

This page has been developed using tyre industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tyres in the same test.

Why is this important? Tyre testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tyre test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tyre tests performed on different days or at different locations.

As a result you will see other tests on Tyre Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.

Lots of other websites do this sort of tyre comparison, Tyre Reviews doesn't.
