Pros, cons & observations

Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.

Tire A Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3

The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 is widely regarded as a premium, comfort-oriented performance tire that excels in daily driving scenarios. While it receives high praise for its quiet ride, wet-weather traction, and overall refinement, it is frequently criticized by enthusiasts for having soft sidewalls that can compromise steering precision and feedback during spirited driving.

Pros

  • Exceptional ride comfort and low road noise levels
  • Strong wet and dry grip performance for daily commuting
  • High value-for-money compared to direct competitors like Michelin
  • Excellent longevity for many users, particularly in non-aggressive driving

Cons

  • Soft sidewalls leading to vague steering feedback and 'mushy' handling
  • Inconsistent tread life, with some users reporting rapid wear on high-torque vehicles
  • Reduced rim protection compared to previous generations
  • Susceptibility to sidewall damage from potholes

Observations

  • Users with high-torque, rear-wheel-drive sedans (e.g., BMW 5/6 series) frequently report excellent mileage and comfort, especially with Run-Flat (ROF) variants.
  • Drivers of performance-oriented hatchbacks and sports cars often find the sidewalls too soft for track use or aggressive cornering, preferring stiffer alternatives.
  • The tire is noted to have a significant 'bed-in' period, with performance and handling characteristics improving noticeably after 1,000–2,500 km.
Tire B Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 SUV

The Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 SUV is widely regarded as a high-value, performance-oriented summer tire that delivers impressive grip and handling in both wet and dry conditions. While most users praise its comfort and cost-effectiveness compared to premium rivals, tread life experiences are polarized, ranging from exceptional longevity to premature wear depending on vehicle weight and driving style.

Pros

  • Excellent wet and dry traction
  • High value-for-money compared to premium brands
  • Strong ride comfort and low road noise
  • Effective rim protection design

Cons

  • Inconsistent tread life, particularly on heavier vehicles
  • Poor performance in snow and icy conditions
  • Limited off-road capability
  • Reports of poor customer service and warranty support in failure cases

Observations

  • Heavy SUVs and high-performance vehicles (e.g., Porsche Cayenne, Range Rover) may experience significantly accelerated outer-edge wear.
  • Users on mid-sized SUVs like the Tiguan and Sportage report more balanced and durable tread life, often exceeding 25,000 miles.
  • The tire is frequently noted as a superior, more affordable alternative to factory-fitted Continental tires on premium European SUVs.

From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of our score

Tire A

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3

Mixed

Community opinion on the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 is generally mixed, with users comparing it to competitors like Michelin and Bridgestone regarding handling, noise, and wear. While some drivers appreciate their performance and find good deals or rebates on them, others note that competitors like the Michelin Pilot Sport offer better wet grip and lower noise, or that snow performance is lacking as expected from a summer tire.

“Most recent 3 tyres for me: Current at >40,000km - Bridgestone Potenza RE003 ~20,000km - Michelin Pilot Sport 4 ~35,000km - Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 The Pilot Sport 4 has been my favourite of the three by far - handling felt just as good as the Goodyear Eagle F1 whilst having less road noise and incredible wet grip, but they just didn't last long. But I enjoyed them so much I'll try the Pilot Sport 5's next as they supposedly have improvements to tread wear.”

“Hi there, I need to put new tyres on my f30 330d. I want to switch away from run flats. The tyres will be used all year round. I was veering towards the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 as recommended by this website (although I am open to other suggestions): ... However the snow performance seems to be lacking (not too surprising given they are a summer tyre) ... Therefore I was wondering about Michelin crossclimate instead: ... I live in a rural part of the south east so I get no more than two weeks of snow a year but face driving on un-gritted roads when it does snow. The rub here is that I'm compromising the cars performance for the rest of the year to make sure I'm OK for 2 weeks in winter! Any thoughts on which option would be best for somebody in my position? Thanks”

“Hi, I currently have Falken Azenis FK510s all round and i need to replace both front tyres. Sticking with Runflats, are these a good option: Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 (225/40 R19 93Y) ROF XL *BMW [F] and is there any downsides to running 2 different brands? The back don't need changing yet car is a 335d xDrive Thanks for any info”

“Originally Posted By: slacktide_bitog DTD has their memorial day sale, and the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 is $132 each, plus $200 in rebates. If you open up a DTD credit card, there is another $100 $50 rebate available (making the total $300 $250 off) I made a slight mistake, sorry But still, $200 or $250 off the set of four tires is a great deal”

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.
