swordfish 30 Report post Posted June 27, 2012 Did anyone have any experience with Goodyear Eagle F1 Directional 5 tyres? Thank you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M5V8 337 Report post Posted June 28, 2012 yes. expensive. but awesome grip dry but especially good in the wet. In torrential rain I overtook cars on SH1 dribbling at 50kph at 100 and it was rock stable. Even through deep standing water. i was super impressed.

swordfish 30 Report post Posted June 28, 2012 Great! Sounds like very impressive tyre!!! I have old Symmetric F1s on my car now and I love them, these apparently, are on another level though... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swordfish 30 Report post Posted June 28, 2012 Opposing opinion, don't believe in directional tyres every car I drove with them on felt worse than same car with comparable asymetric or non directional tyres Goodyear is also Michelins "mid priced " brand so they compare them to other mid range tyres Would you be able to describe what were the main differences that you found with the directional vs asymetric?
