How about GOODYEAR EAGLE F1?
hi all
I am going to change my tires to Goodyear Eagle F1 for my FD. the size of the tire is 235/45 17. its all season tires, and its about $160.00 each on the websites. has anyone used these tires yet? how are they? thanks |
What kind of power are you making, and what kind of weather do you drive the car in?
Are you talking about the F1 GS-D3? If so, those are good tires and you'll be ok. I wouldnt touch any other Goodyears with a ten foot pole though. |
I've used the Eagle F1 GS-D3s. They have great all-around performance in the summer both wet and dry with good wear. I think they have the best and most predictable wet traction you can get out of a street tire.
If you're looking for maximum dry traction for track or autocross then they're not quite as grippy as some other streetable tires. But those cost more and don't last as long. Dave |

Oh, I hadn't caught that. The Eagle F1 GS-D3 is definitely not all-season.

If you aren't thinking about driving during the winter, then don't get an "all season" tire. Performance tires deal with water just fine (if you get the right one). I would suggest looking at the mentioned Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 or the Kumho MX. Both of those have very good dry and wet performance.

hmmm i guess i'll just keep my tires.....

FWIW, my father just put the all-season F1s on his IS350, and I like them. No, they're not max-performance summer tires, but they're darned good street tires.
