Review on Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 245/45 R17 99Y summer by Anastazja Orebska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality is top notch, happy with everything.

If you want quiet - not your option. You don’t need maximum controllability on the pavement in any weather, more important is silence, comfort, maybe traction with the ground is also not your option. Choosing between Asymmetric 5, Viking Contact 6 and Pilot Sport 4 - that's a great choice then, only the price tag has risen 1.5 times in a year. I use it on a non-permanent full (Haldex 5) drive, ~ 240 forces.

Pros
  • The most luxurious taxiing on dry land and in the rain. Changed with Pilot Sport 4 - so there is something to compare with. Goodyear behaves nicer, and that's a fact. I can say the same about braking! Especially felt on wet surfaces. Good wear resistance, strong sidewall.
Cons
  • The noise is just HELL. After the transition from winter to summer (with Michelin X-Ice Snow) I was shocked, because I forgot that theoretically there could be SUCH a difference. In fact, this is a retribution for the use of tough and durable UHP rubber, which does not negate the fact that the same Michelin was quieter, and significantly. The most annoying thing is that the main noise is somewhere around 70-130 km / h, i. E. main application.
