“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 ?”

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 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 (and PS4S) is overwhelmingly positive, with users frequently praising the massive grip, excellent steering feel, and dramatic improvements in ride quality compared to OEM run-flats. While some note that they wear out relatively quickly and can be noisy on highways or sensitive to cold temperatures (below 40°F), they are widely considered a top-tier performance tire for both daily driving and spirited use.
“Those are Pilot sport 4 (all season). If it had s after the 4 it would be the summer high performance version. I put the pilot sport 4 on wife's GTI autobahn 2016. Great handling tire, stiff side walls, not the smoothest ride but best overall.”
“Punctured tire after fresh 4-Michelin PS4 tire change what to do? In December, I bought a fresh set of 4 tires Michelin PS4, manufactured in 2020, and the next day, one of them was punctured by a nail. I drove for a month with the nail inside before noticing and when I did, I took it to a tire shop who said it needs replacing. It was not easy for me financially to change one of them again. So I asked him to “repair” it and he did so, but recommended changing it ASAP. I have been driving on that punctured tire for 8 months now, refilling it every 2 weeks. And I am starting to worry a blowout will happen as refills are needed more frequently lately. The PS4 is not available anymore where I live, all shops have the PS5, for almost the same price. I am now ready to change it. Should I change one PS4 to PS5? Or two, or all four? Read more”
“I just installed A/S PS4 from Michelin on my BRZ recently & man they are so nice. How quiet it is, is wow, night and day. They handle quite nice except when it's still cold (sub 40F) on highway, traction control triggers but it may bc I'm lowered and yet to do my alignment. I don't know compared to stock, I was on Falken prior. I am using different tire set-up then stock however. I have 245/35 at the front and 265/35 in rear. My only regret is not going up to 40 on the sidewall for more meat. This is on 18" wheels.”

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.”
“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”
“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.
