Owners rate it 9.5 points lower than the instrumented road tests do — see the two score breakdowns below for where they disagree.

Two scoring systems, side by side

Owner scores come from reviews found online; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.

How scores work

Relative score: 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests: 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews: 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 2,839 owner reviews found online.

The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 is widely praised by users for its exceptional wet and dry grip, short braking distances, and high level of ride comfort and quietness. Many reviewers noted that switching to these tires significantly transformed their vehicle's handling and ride quality, particularly when replacing harsher OEM run-flat tires. However, some drivers reported faster-than-average tread wear and a softer sidewall that can occasionally result in a slightly squirmy or less precise steering feel during aggressive cornering.

Pros

Outstanding wet and dry traction and braking performance
Superior ride comfort and significantly reduced road noise compared to competitors or run-flats
Predictable and progressive handling limits
Good value for money relative to other premium brand alternatives

Cons

Faster-than-expected tread wear, particularly on high-powered or rear-wheel-drive vehicles
Softer sidewalls can induce a 'spongy' or 'jelly-like' feel during sharp, high-speed direction changes
Susceptible to sidewall bulging or cracking when encountering harsh potholes, especially in run-flat variants
Wet performance can decline noticeably once the tread wears down below 3-4mm

Worth knowing

Drivers replacing stiff OEM run-flat tires on BMW models (such as the 3 and 5 Series) experienced a dramatic improvement in ride comfort and a reduction in tramlining, though some noted a slight loss in initial steering sharpness.
Owners of high-powered hot hatches and sports cars (like the Ford Focus ST, VW Golf GTI, and Porsche Cayman) praised the dry and wet grip for daily driving and spirited backroad use, while acknowledging quicker wear under aggressive driving styles.
Drivers utilizing low-profile sizes on poor-quality or pothole-laden roads reported higher vulnerability to sidewall damage and bulges.

What owners are saying

From Reddit, forums and review threads. Not part of the scores above.

Community sentiment for the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 is predominantly positive, with drivers praising its wet-weather handling, quiet road noise, and comfortable ride quality compared to competitors and run-flat alternatives. While traction and longevity are generally viewed favorably, a few owners noted moderate grip limitations under hard acceleration or confusion regarding all-season versus summer classifications.

“I've just replaced ContiSport 5's for Goodyear Assy 2 runflats and the Goodyears are so much quieter. Bought the tyres from Costco and paid £600 for 4 x tyres fitted 225 front & 255 rear on 19" rims. One thing I have noticed with the Goodyears is that the ride is much softer, so for the first time in 3 years of ownership when selecting Sport suspension [M sport adaptive suspension] the ride is fun. Previously the ride was too hard with Sport suspension selected. The Goodyears handle speed humps so much better than the Contis did.”

“i had some of those i think. they were ok. not great def got some wheel spin with them but i never felt unsafe. lasted a good prob 25-30k miles. i think mine were higher speed rating tho maybe 103 or something like that. for 100/tire not bad.”

Yes, that price of £122 back in September was very good. There have been some well priced Goodyears F1's on Amazon recently, with keeping a watch fro your size.”
