Reviews of Goodyear tires

i run between 32-30 psi in minw with no problems at all. i am showing normal treadwear with that setting. The ride is good there as well, well, as good of a ride as you can get out of goodyears.

I chose the Goodyears.. to be honest, mostly because I thought they were just damn cool looking I've never ridden on the Potenza's, so I can't give you a side-by-side comparison.. but the Eagles are excellent.. very quiet (especially compared to the OEM Pirelli's which howled like banshees above 50 mph).. dry pavement grip is as good as I've ever experienced (and yes, I get out on the track once in a while.. and drive extremely aggressively everywhere else, as well).. wet weather grip is phenomenal.. they will break lose in extreme situations (sharp turns or in standing water that is fairly deep and more than a couple car lengths.. but that's going to happen with any performance tire) the tires don't give back as much feedback as my old Pirelli's, which got progressively louder as the g-forces increased.. but they will give you ample warning and they break away very predictably.. and better yet, they'll get back on track pretty easily if you ease up.. there is a touch of understeer in the handling, but not nearly as much as the OEM tires.. they're a bit more neutral when they are warm, tho another nice thing is that they don't tug at every uneven surface in the pavement, which my Pirelli's did.. also, the OEM Pirelli's didn't give my rims any sidewall protection, thus nearly every wheel now has curb scratches.. the Eagle's have a ridge that extends farther than the rest of the sidewall to give you a little security.. I have no idea if the Potenza's are the same I'm very happy with my decision to buy the Eagle's.. it would be nice to be able to do a back-to-back test drive with both brands, but how many of us have ever been able to do that? and yeah, I still think they look good

I weighed my MCS 17"s on a bathroom scale - 49 lb. That's with the 205/45-17 Badyear RS-A's. My 215/45-16 and 16x6.5" Enkei RPO1/Falken Azenis weighed 37 lb. on the same scale. 12 lb per corner is a HUGE amount, and is extremely noticeable while driving.

My car handles great in the snow with the stock 17" Goodyear Eagle RS-A's. The biggest problem is it gets so damn dirty

Do a search, there's at least two other threads going... Bottom line: Eric at Tire Rack says the best Goodyear tire he's ever driven, and he likes 'em better than the Bridgestone S-03.

Those tires suck a$$. Years back I bought a Supra Turbo with them as OEM tires. It wasn't hard to break the tires loose with some hard acceleration in the dry, in the wet I'd make a quick shift to 2nd and then 3rd to keep the car from squirming all over the road under moderate throttle. Of course it didn't take long to wear them out.
