From owners
Pros, cons & observations
Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
The Avon Turbospeed CR27 is primarily recognized as a legacy tire choice for classic luxury vehicles, specifically the Bentley Turbo R. User feedback highlights concerns regarding the longevity of the rubber compound over extended periods and the significant financial investment required for replacement.
Pros
- Period-correct aesthetic for classic luxury vehicles
- Original equipment specification for specific vintage models
Cons
- High cost of replacement
- Susceptibility to sidewall cracking and aging over long durations
- Limited modern performance benchmarks
Observations
- Specifically utilized as original equipment for the 1998 Bentley Turbo R in the 255/65R15 size.
- Users note that the tire's lifespan is often dictated more by chronological age and material degradation than by actual mileage.
The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 is widely regarded as a high-performance summer tire that excels in wet and dry grip, offering a significant improvement in ride comfort and noise levels over many OEM and run-flat alternatives. While most users praise its confidence-inspiring handling and daily drivability, a subset of enthusiasts notes that its softer sidewall construction can lead to a less precise steering feel compared to stiffer, more track-focused competitors.
Pros
- Exceptional wet and dry traction
- Superior ride comfort and low road noise
- Effective rim protection design
- Strong value-to-performance ratio
- Excellent braking performance
Cons
- Soft sidewalls can feel 'spongy' or imprecise during aggressive cornering
- Rapid tread wear reported by spirited drivers
- Susceptibility to sidewall damage from potholes
- Performance drop-off as tread depth decreases
Observations
- Users replacing factory run-flat tires on BMW and other luxury vehicles report a transformative improvement in ride quality and reduced tramlining.
- Drivers of high-torque, front-wheel-drive vehicles note significant improvements in traction and reduced wheel hop compared to previous tires.
- Some users on larger rim diameters (18-19 inch) report increased noise and vulnerability to sidewall damage on poor road surfaces.

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
