The Goodyear Eagle RS-A is widely regarded as a dependable, value-oriented all-season tire that excels in dry conditions and offers competitive longevity for daily commuting.

What owners say
No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.
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.
By owner reviews
52/100From 76 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.

The Goodyear Eagle RS-A is widely regarded as a dependable, value-oriented all-season tire that excels in dry conditions and offers competitive longevity for daily commuting. While many users praise its consistent performance and affordability, a segment of the driving community reports concerns regarding wet-weather traction and noise levels as the tread wears down.
Pros
- Excellent price-to-performance ratio
- Strong dry road handling and cornering grip
- Reliable tread life for many users, often reaching 60,000 miles
- Consistent availability as an OEM replacement tire
Cons
- Inconsistent traction in heavy rain or standing water
- Poor performance in deep snow and ice conditions
- Increased road noise reported after significant mileage
- Hard rubber compound can lead to a vague steering feel for performance-oriented drivers
Worth knowing
- Users with mid-size sedans like the Ford Fusion and Nissan Maxima frequently report achieving the advertised 60,000-mile tread life.
- Drivers of lighter vehicles, such as the Mini Cooper, noted that the tire provides sufficient grip for daily driving but lacks the precision required for aggressive cornering.
