“I have vredestein ultrac pro’s on my golf R currently in 245/40r18 - I have been very pleased with the performance for the price. They’ve taken over 1G in corners with no issues. Wearing pretty well about 5k miles in as well. I’d say they’re about 85-90% as good as a PS4S or EC02. Been surprisingly good in the rain too”

“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 members generally view the Vredestein Ultrac and Ultrac Pro as a compelling, budget-friendly alternative to premium high-performance summer tires like the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S. Users frequently highlight significant cost savings alongside comparable dry and wet performance, comfort, and noise levels, though a few note trade-offs in extreme cornering stiffness.
“The Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta are probably the best sport tyres ever made. Ive sold tyres for a living since I was 16, I've tried and tested hundreds of different tyres so i can give my customers the best advice, so I class myself as somewhat of an expert. The Sessantas are brilliant. I had them on an X5 for 8,000 miles, they couldn't have performed all round any better. EDIT: Oh and they wear so evenly it's unbelievable!”
“Need new tires... Anyone have Vredestein Ultrac Pro tires? Need new tires on my 2023 Model 3 Performance with 235/45R20 size. I noticed the Vredestein Ultrac Pro tires have great reviews from a couple UK tests, but they are new and not yet popular in the US. Does anyone have any thoughts on them? They are HALF the price of Michelin PS4S. I don't care at all about snow or rain performance (no CrossClimates), as I'm in warm Southern California. I mainly care about rolling resistance, having good steering feel, and not needing to replace them every 20k miles.”
“I'm currently on Vredestein Ultrac Pros and I'm very happy with them. I would say they're 90% of PS4S for 50% of the price. They're quieter and more comfortable than the stock Pzeros. I highly recommend them. Like you, I run summers year round.”

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.
