Tire A

Goodyear Eagle Sport All-Season

Positive

Community feedback on the Goodyear Eagle Sport All-Season highlights its strong value, competitive pricing, and solid traction, handling, and treadwear expectations. While noted as an improvement over older designs like the Eagle GT, discussions around the ROF (run-flat) version indicate some concerns regarding a stiffer ride compared to conventional non-run-flat alternatives.

“So i have a 2009 Scion TC (purchased exactly 6 years ago) which just hit 43k miles. As you can see i baby my car and i use public transportation to work. That being said the stock turanzas are toast. actually running Kuhmo Ecsta supras on the back and stock bridgestones on the front So that leaves me in the market for 4 new tires. After driving myself crazy i've basically narrrowed it down to 3 (tire size is 215/45/17) Michelin Premier A/S : Via Sam's 128 per Tire Goodyear Eagle Sport All-Season after current promotions at Sears $83 a tire Continental TrueContact havent shopped this hard yet I mean as of right now it looks like the Goodyears would win out of sheer price per tire but im not crazy about Sears automotive work. I will be getting an alignment and road hazard HELP!!!”

How do we compare tires?

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.

Handling is the exception: road tests measure it inside the dry and wet scores, so its own row comes from owner ratings only and starts as less important.
