Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 Reviews - Page 2

Given 73% while driving a Audi 1.8T Quattro (225/50 R17) on mostly town for 9 average miles
Front pair fully-worn only after 5,000km (3,100 miles), disappointing. Otherwise it was good in terms of drive feeling, not much understeering, a bit aquaplanning though. The other pair last for 10,000km (6,200 miles) in the rear, then another 5,000km (3,100 miles) after rotated to the front, still have over 3mm tread when disposed, no idea why this pair (bought at the same time as the last pair) aged much better. The outlook (design) - forget it, sides too soft and looks really dumb since new. That is the other reason I chose PS4 / PS5 (which also have less aquaplanning) but no more F1Ax.

Given 60% while driving a Volvo V60 Cross Country (235/50 R18) on a combination of roads for 11 average miles
All other things being equal, I was looking for the quietest tyre I could find. Various sources claimed between 68 and 70db, so I bought them. Grip in all weathers was fine, and comfort and feed back were good. However, I've covered about 11,000 miles since they went on and the tread is just shy of the wear bars. I could probably get 12,000 if I pushed it, but a change in the next 500 miles (and before Winter) is likely. I like what I know and would happily buy again IF I thought I could get 15-18k out of them...

Purchased in 2018 the Goodyear Asymmmetric 3 Run Flats for my BMW 5 series touring, I am just replacing them now having covered 40,000 miles which is really excellent, they were much quieter than the Goodyear Excellence tyres previously fitted and gave better road handling and improved grip overall. They also wore evenly unlike the previous Goodyear Excellence standard fit tyres, so highly recommended.

Given 51% while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTI (225/40 R18) on mostly country roads for 7,000 average miles
Handle okay, and they’re a good balance between comfort and response most of the time. They were replacing Potenzas that I couldn’t get on with so haven’t got strong competition. The wet grip isn’t bad either. They will slip a bit on greasy and wet surfaces though, but generally it’s clear where their limit is. The wear is diabolical, in a 200ps+ car. I’m getting about 10,000 miles out of them on the driven wheels, and a lot of that is steady commuting miles.

Given 66% while driving a Skoda (235/45 R18) on mostly motorways for 10,000 average miles
I've got mixed bag experience with this tyre. It lacks a little bit of road feedback and precision. Grip on dry is avarage, especially at temperatures around 10C. It was not a problem to have a wheelspin when pulling from red lights (190HP 320NM FWD), which is marginable experience with my winter tyres (Michellin Pilot Alpin 5). But my main concern is tyre noise. On good asphalt it's really quiet tyre. But on concrete or rough asphalt it just drove me mad. It produces howling sound and driving through concrete slabs connections is very noticeable with clicking sound. Mainly for noise reason i wouldn't recommend this tyre anyone. This summer season I switched to Michellin Primacy 4+, from the first drives it feels more direct and a lot quieter, especially on concrete.

Given 73% while driving a Alfa Romeo Giulia 2.2 160hp (225/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 16,000 average miles
225/45/r18 front, 255/40/r18 rear, both Runflat On the dry, I feel like they can push more than I would want, very good grip. With wet weather, they don't give me 100% safety feeling. They grip ok, but you feel like you are always on the edge. Also, aquaplaning is noticeable on highway. All the wet problems may be because they are RF... but I probably would try another tyre next, and 100% will be non RF After 26000km, I have left 3.5-4.5mm on the front and 3.5-4mm on the rear

Given 83% while driving a BMW 420d M Sport X Drive (225/50 R17) on mostly motorways for 26,000 average miles
I have a BMW 420D (235hp) with 225/50/17 Run Flat. I had for 1,5 year, almost 42.000km the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 ROF Runflat 98Y XL. The comfort of the tyres was prety good special for the 1st year. Noice levels also. Never bother me or gave me headache like other tyres. The tires perform well fairly quickly. Excellent braking and manage the power of the car well. They have a good grip. Their sole still has a satisfactory groove, but small pieces have been detached. Unfortunately the reviews for run flat tires are not enough and in the dimension 225/50/17 there are no new Asymmetric 5. I am looking to see what I will replace them with. I thought of Pirelli, but I've been quite confused by their name, which has remained the same for many years. I will probably choose the same.

Extremely comfortable tires. Very quiet. 225/40/18 FWD 245/35/18 AFT Lasted for 40.000km in 2 years. Until up to 70% of their life they had great wet and dry grip. I would buy them again!

Very good tire, driven lots on German autobahn. High speed noise neglectable compared to normal highway speed. Handling and feedback excellent. Low noise and high comfort.

Given 56% while driving a Ford Kuga (235/50 R18) on mostly town for 8,000 easy going miles
Bought 4 of these for my Ford Kuga. O.k grip on wet and dry roads. Seem very prone to punctures. Crash loudly over potholes. Bit noisey. Worst thing about them is wear rate. Had them on for 11 months and 8000 miles, Down to about 5 mm on rears but fronts down to legal limit with a very sedate driving style. Very disappointed considering high purchace price. I've had budgets last twice as long with same grip and cost half the price. Don't waste your money buy something else. I would never buy Goodyear tyres again!

I was extremely dissaponted after 30.000km. Wet performance was atrocious. On a colder day, lost grip quickly when accelerating. I would never buy them again. They are really silent though.

Given 93% while driving a BMW 530dA M Sports E39 (265/35 R18) on a combination of roads for 15,000 spirited miles
Had these on my 530d for about 3 years covering 15k+ Very comfortable ride, excellent dry grip, noise levels are acceptable - but most importantly the wet grip is second to none. My car is far from the fastest or toque-iest, but well known for being Spirited in the rear! Holds very well to the ground, and I always get comments about how well my car handles, taking corners pretty hard even in the wet. I've only lost the rear end once (not on purpose), but I'm 99% sure there was oil on the tarmac :-). I've had Premium Contact's and Potenza's on the car and honestly they are nothing in comparison. Just ordered a new set of the Asy 5's, judging by the reviews should be the same, will be reviewing after a few k/miles. Was tempted by the PS4's or the Hankook S3, but couldn't make the decision to come away from the F1's
