“My experience is as follows: SC7>PS4S's>ASY6>PS5>ASY5>PS4. I've not tried the ASY6 supersports and I think it's fair to say the PS5/4 grip better than ASY5/6, but you get a lot more feel through the goodyears. Sport contact 7 by far the best overall road tyre you can drive without going for a super aggressive tyre or semi slick.”

Best test result: #1 of 7 in 2026 Sport Auto Summer Tyre Test (dry handling)
“Potential issue with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6? I recently installed a full set of Goodyear eagle F1 A6’s to my Golf GTI, since then I’ve noticed a really bad vibration through my seat at speeds around 70mph, at first I thought it was balancing so took the car back to the workshop and had them checked, the guy said they were fine, drove it again and same issue, I then took it to another place to double check, the guy said they were .5g out, no buckles, but still the issue is present, I’m starting to get a bit pissed off with the tyres at this point, my only option now is to submit a warranty claim, but first I have to buy a new set and I only get my money back if the original tyres are defective, does anyone have any experience with these tyres? Maybe it’s just that they’re super firm tyres but they’re so uncomfortable. Read more”

Themes extracted from owner reviews found online — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of our score
Community opinion on the Continental SportContact 7 is overwhelmingly positive regarding its exceptional grip, direct steering response, and wet weather performance, often rivaling or beating the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. However, users frequently note trade-offs in tread life, reporting faster wear and lower initial tread depth compared to touring-oriented tires.
“Do these need replacing? Got my UK Mot check next week so would like to know if these need replacing before that. These are continental sport contact 7 on a hyundai i30N. Done about 10k miles the last tyres I had I done about the same before I had replacement Read more”
“Just took the factory SC7’s off my gfs puma ST, they are super grippy, they feel even stickier than the PS4S on my car but I’d say they are less predictable at the limits and I always felt like they tramlined a bit too much and they weren’t a very comfortable tyre. Fronts have just under half their tread left after 11000 miles. Swapped em out for conti all season contact 2’s as she needs to be able to go out during any conditions and she doesn’t want to have two sets.”
“Picked up an F82 M4 as my daily driver a few months back with mixed tyre set up of PS2 and Super Sports. Keen to replace them and I’ve always been a fan of the 4S but looks like TyreReviews thinks the Sport Contact 7 is the new all-round king. Has anyone got experience with them? Do they wear as well as the 4S?”
Based on 58 community posts
Community opinion on the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 is largely positive, with many drivers praising its balance of performance, wet/dry grip, and pricing compared to direct competitors like the Michelin Pilot Sport series. While a few users noted concerns regarding comfort, cold-weather performance in tests, or potential high-speed vibrations, the vast majority recommend them as top-tier daily driving and spirited performance tires.
“im on my 4th set of goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric 6 and i will never go back to other brands or models. i use them on my e220d estate and as a job im uber driver and do about 7000 miles a month.”
“No EV ready logo on Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 I recently bought Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 255/45R19 104Y XL SCT tyres. According to this article, this tyre should contain EV Ready logo but my tyres do not have it. I discussed with seller and they claimed that this tyres are ev ready even if it does not have the ev ready logo. Is that possible ? Can i trust that my tyres are EV Ready ?”
“I've had the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 (235/45/18). They were really sturdy, comfort was super bad with them and I sold them for half the price. These are sport tyres, you do not need them.”

Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
