Replaced both my rear Conti Sport 2 with the Goodyear F1 as I found them at a very good price on an internet tyre dealer. Very impressed. They give me lots of confidence in the wet.

Highly recommended and I will buy them again if I can find them at a good price. At the moment, I would consider only the Dunlop Maxx, Conitinental Conti Sport 2/3 and Goodyear F1. I find them outstanding and I have used them for my current car.

Bought to replace Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3s which were excellent but wore out after just 8500 miles.
The grip from these is far superior, especially in the wet, and have lasted to just over 12000 miles. I could probably get a few more miles out of them (they have 3mm tread left), but the feedback is telling me it's time to change.

These are also far, far superior to the Merc original Michelins which, while lasting 24000 miles, were a nightmare in the wet.

I can also state that I had no issues with the grip of the F1 asymmetrics in the recent snowy weather - sure they don't have much grip in snow (not many non-winter tyres do), but low revs, low speed and a little forethought saw us safely to/from work each day.

Incidentally, if you have tyre sizes which aren't readily available in winter tyres, I heartily recommend AutoSocks as an alternative option!

Switched from the standard fit RF tyres on my BMW Z4. Appreciable improvement in handling in both wet and dry conditions. Expected an improvement in comfort too but this was not forthcoming. Turn in was comparatively less accurate and I also felt there was not a great deal of improvement in feedback. I had read reviews on these before buying and so expected them to wear quickly. 8000 miles on the rear now and need changing, fronts are still fine. All in all I can recommend these tyres, but I was given a sweet deal at ?89 each for a set of 4. I will be switching to Bridgestone Potenza RE050's as these are best tyre I have owned (when they were attached to my old VX220)

Coming from the Pirelli p-zero Rosso, I was pleasantly surprised. The Eagle F1 Asymmetric handles far better on both the dry and the wet. These tyres have the same "feeling" of pliability and grip as racing compounds. I disagree with a previous comment that they are "vague". In fact, feedback is impressive. To top it all, they remedy corner entry for my car: No more understeer!

Had a set of these fitted to the rear of my car around 5k miles ago and it transformed it completely, especially in the wet. My car has a reasonable amount of power through the rear wheel and even in wet weather the back is still nice and planted. Dry weather conditions are as expected and seem to hold from word go, and still hold after a long enthusiastic drive. By far these are the best tyres ive ever had. ?150 / corner but worth every penny! As for wear i couldn't say yet but there is still plenty of tread left. As earlier mentioned its worth reiterating, these tyres are not only "poor" in snow ice but completely and utterly useless. But given "normally" theres only a few weeks of snow a year this is something i can live with and take the bus instead :(.

I've used Goodyears for 25 years - no use having tyres for dry Italian roads if'n yer live in Scotland. These are the best ever - not quite as long lasting as the previous GSD3s. Only tried the rears so far - fronts soon. WARNING: they turn into Skidmasters in the snow & ice - use yer girlfriend's car instead until it thaws :)

Chose these to replace four Michelin Pilot Primacy tyres on a TDI 130. I switched the Michelins F to R and changed them at 35K. They no doubt wear well, but lack the sure-footedness of the F1 Asyms. The grip and comfort of the F1s was evident from the off. I seldom push to the limit with a precious family on board, but the drive is smooth and handling good. In comparison, the Michelins felt too firm and skitty on roundabouts, pressures correct.
With 5K done the front wear is OK. The biting edge of the tread blocks on the fronts are roughened, but not bad. Rears hardly show any wear yet.
The one negative was a slight rise in road noise level.
Just watched the Autocar 07 tyre test - glad I chose these. Steve

Audi A8 W12 6.0L Quattro (444bhp)

Car came with Potenza RE40s - Which were good in the dry but the comfort was terrible and were very noisy for the last half of their life. Switched to F1 Asymmetric and the difference in noise & comfort was excellent even as they wear.

Very good grip in wet and dry even on a heavy car.
Will buy again.

After much research, I switched from Bridgestone Potenza run flat to these. Very much regret it after only 500 miles.

Car is tranformed from a precise, driving delight into a soggy pudding.

Dry grip is unacceptable, unintentional slides possible at 40mph in hot tyres with 20C ambient. Given the roll in the car now you just dont trust the tyres to hold on.
Wet grip is very good.

Handling is awful - car wobbles and lurches now, even on rubber band profile tyres.

If you have RFT's on your BMW and want to move to a high performance 'normal' tyre - please, learn form my Eur700 mistake - DONT! Not unless you want to get your suspesnsion altered as well.

These F1 Asymetrics replaced the original Conti Sport 2 abot 18 months ago. In all aspects the Goodyears are vastly superior.
There is much more grip and at the limit they are very progressive which makes accessing the cars power (chipped to 270hp) so much easier, there is no feeling of these tyres are going to 'suddenly let go'. There is no knife-edge at the point of breakaway.
In the wet they are even better. It is amazing how much you can lean on these tyres even in appalling conditions.
Did some laps of the Nurburgring in pouring rain, I could concentrate on driving the track rather than worrying about what grip I had for each corner!!
Most of my miles are on the motorway so I've got 22000 miles out of them, same as the Conti's. I was expecting more.
Will definitely have Goodyear F1 Asynetric again

I've done approximately 8,000 miles on these on the front of an Audi A3 2.0TDI (140bhp/236 lb-ft)

Dry weather, these things stick to the road like nothing I've ever experienced. They literally eat every corner an spit it out laughing screaming to go harder. I really have to go into a corner trying my absolute hardest to get them to step out an even when they do it's so manageable an predictable.

Wet weather, still a very acceptable amount of grip around corners (not forgetting they are predominantly summer tyres) but I could still manage to get the traction control to flash up on the dash when accelerating hard in 2nd gear.

I've got about 3mm left after the 8,000 miles but I have spent 90% of the time on the motorway which isn't to great, the other 10% I've been giving them a hard time. So I've just switched them onto the rear axle now an got a set of Michelin Pilot Primacy on the front.

For the level of grip these tyres give, (saved my front bumper on a few occasions) with one or two emergency stops I'd definitely say they are worth it.

But for that price you have to be willing to get some new rubber in the not so distance future.

Dry grip was poor unless the tyre was very warm. Tyres became noisy after 3000 miles and lasted 9000. They were on a par with the Potenzas and no where near as good as the OPTIGRIPs I am now running.
