for 15,000
spirited miles
Excellent tyres, best I've had on a car so far.
My M135i had Michelin Pilot Super Sports (MPSS) when I bought it and these were grippier in the dry, however in the wet they were bordering on dangerous. The MPSS gave very little feedback in the wet and you could easily find yourself sideways putting the power down in 3rd going around a gentle bend on a dual carriageway!
Changing to Goodyear Eagle Asymmetric completely changed the behaviour of the car in the wet. Predictable, easy to control on the limit (or slightly beyond), lovely tyres. They wear well too, I've just had 15000 miles out of a rear set and I drive around with the traction control fully off all the time (LSD on the back). Still good grip in the dry, but I do admit less grippy in the dry than the MPSS were.
All round the Goodyear Eagle Asymmetric can't be beaten in my view. I'd love to try another brand but I tried that before and they were much worse, so I'm not going to risk it!
