Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport
WatchThe Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport is a focused max-performance summer tyre that prioritises steering precision, dry grip and driver engagement. Across user feedback and independent testing it consistently feels like a “driver's tyre”, delivering sharp turn-in, strong front-end bite and impressive pace for fast road driving and occasional track work. Wet handling is generally competitive for the category, but confidence and safety margins can be more variable than the newest premium rivals, particularly in wet braking and in colder/damp conditions.

View Test ResultsI think now it's just starting to show its age. It couldn't quite match the best in the dry and its rolling resistance is very high but it is still a very good tyre. I assume it's going to be priced very well for its longevity, My gut tells me this will be the best-wearing tyre here, although I don't have any data to prove that, so ignore me.

Questions and Answers for the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport
Ask a questionHi are Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport better in dry grip then Michelin Pilot Sport 4 ?
Are these Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport Tyres better in the wet than MPS4 tyres ? I have MPSS tyres on my M240I , I was going to swap these for MPS4 tyres however the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport tyres may be the better choice
In my country I only able to find Thailand made F1. is the quality is same as euro made?
Goodyear have launched an Audi OE Supersport in 225/40/18 92Y and the noise on this is lower by 3db and fuel economy has improved by going from E to C rated. Which one of these will be a better performing tyre? Will the OE version perform as well as the non OE version. The car I am thinking of using them on is a Golf R mk7.5 stage 1 tuned (same MQB chassis as the Audi)
I am looking for a tire similar in performance to the TOYO R1R. Unfortunately the sizes that I currently have on my car I have only a few alternatives (no more Pirelli Pzero AR!): Michelin Pilot Sport CUP 2, Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport and Supersport R. My driving is 5% track and 95% road. Ambient temperatures are in the range 5-35 ° C and the car is an Alfa Romeo 4C: what do you recommend?
Hi, I’m looking for replacement tyres for my BMW e85 Z4M. OEM rear sizing (255/40/18) means my choice is limited, so no PS4S or SportContact7. Current options are Michelin PS5, Michelin PSS or GY Eagle F1 SuperSports. The car is driven on weekends between April and October, with 1 or 2 track days per year maximum. What do you recommend? Kind Regards Patrick
How would the supersport compare to the Ass. 6? And what is the expected life of the Supersport tire?
Review Summary
Based on 59 user reviews
Across 59 reviews, the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport is widely praised as a highly focused UUHP road tyre with exceptional dry grip, sharp turn-in, and standout steering feedback, with many drivers also highlighting strong heat resistance and consistency for occasional track use. Wet performance is generally described as good for the category, but a notable minority report reduced confidence in cold/damp conditions or as the tyre wears down. Comfort is frequently described as firmer/harsh and some users note higher noise, while wear is often good for performance use yet can be very fast on high-torque cars or when driven hard.
Strengths
- Exceptional dry grip and cornering stability
- Very sharp steering response and strong feedback
- Track-capable consistency and good resistance to overheating for a road tyre
- Braking performance and overall confidence at speed
- Good value versus key rivals (often compared with michelin ps4s)
Areas for Improvement
- Firmer ride/harshness over bumps; comfort trade-off
- Increased road noise for some fitments/vehicles
- Wet/cold or damp-road performance can be less confidence-inspiring (especially near limits or with lower tread)
- Wear can be very fast on high-torque applications or heavy track use

Not regretting buying the tires but just disappointed with the overnight flat spots.
PS: Sidewall design is awful:)

Immediate improvement over the P Zero PZ4 in terms of instant grip without requiring much tyre warm-up.
Great feedback, great grip — the tyre never let me down.
Only downside is less stiff sidewalls compared to the PZ4, though this could be due to it being an Audi spec compound.
I liked the way these tyres sat on the wheel (235/35/19 on a 8j wheel). The sidewalls were flat which I like (I don't like rounded sidewalls) and offered some curb protection. However you're never really going to be safe from the curbs with low profile tyres.
I've used multiple premium brands in my 26 years of driving and Goodyear have always been well balanced. I've used Eagle F1 Asymmetric 1, 2 and 3 in the past and they were very good. The Supersport once again were very good performers overall. I can't fault them in the warm and dry and I pushed them hard. In the cold and wet I can't recall any time when they let me down either. The only downside to the Supersport is they seem to be quite stiff because I could feel all the bumps in the road. The advantage to this was the steering was spot on.
I once had to hit the brakes to avoid a collision and although these did skid, they stopped the car just in time so I guess they did their job. That's what you pay premium brands for.
If choosing between Supersport and Asymmetric, I'd go with Asymmetric. For everyday driving the Asymmetric will be more comfortable. The only advantage I can see with the Supersport is if you plan to push your car hard.
On daily driving the tyre is working absolutely fine and does have always grip. Except the temperature is below 10 degrees and it's wet. Than the tyre struggles with grip. The michelin pilot sport 4s is here better.
But on the another hand, the tyre is working also on a trackday very good. It doesn't have the ultimate grip like a cup2, but it is consistent, and it doesn't overhead. The grip is high, and the tyre does not fall apart when driven hard. Also, the tyre wear on a track or on a windy road is simply amazing! Even when if you drift, the tyre wear is really good. I mean, when you drift, the wear is always high, but this tyre was able to take some hard beating!
I would definitely buy it again, but goodyear stopped to produce this tyre in my size.
But the feedback, the durability and the grip was absolutely amazing for a road tyre!
These tyres are extremely competent on a summer’s day. Above 10°c and a dry road I could never reached their limits. In the rain they are also very well put together, albeit I never pushed them in the wet.
Unfortunately, I could never fully enjoy these tyres. Due to the horrendous degradation of our roads, soon after purchase I hit an extremely bad pothole (under a railway bridge. Couldn’t see it until it was too late). Although the tyre and wheel was refitted, I never felt like I could fully trust them. This is there downside. They are extremely hard (due to being a UUHP) and just can’t cope with our roads. They get thrown about all over the place and don’t make for a pleasant ride. This isn’t the fault of the tyres, but really can’t recommend them as an everyday in the UK.
I will add finally that they are useless in the winter. This is no surprise, but under 8°c they are rock hard. So do keep this in mind. Perhaps have a set of winters/All seasons and run these only in the summer.
I’m now back on the Michelins and the car is a pleasure to drive once again.
Avoid.
Not too noisy but not a quiet tire.
Wear is great. Mine have seen a few trackdays and around 40000km and there is still plenty of tire left.
If you find them for a good price, BUY!
Wet grip is realy good comparable with Michelin PS4, solid grip in the wet with slightly less tolerance for aquaplaning (obviously it is not designed to be competition rain tyre so be careful while exploring limits :)
Treadwear, comfort and noise level... as expected from uuhp tyre (spirited driving 15000km max)
At the end amazing tyres for price
