Default Potenza s001 vs goodyear f1 asy2?

Hello. Which tyres will be better for wrx 270hp? Normal drive, sometimes faster in curves, only street. For winter I will have winter tyres. Size 225/40r18
What do you recommend?

Greetings

I think Goodyear are better all round but Bridgestone have stiffer sidewalls so may give better grip because of that. Bridgestone will also wear a lot faster IMO.

I have the goodyears on a evo and the S001's on the Spec C

I find the S001's a little bit better, grip wise but both are good

The F1's give a bit of road noise

Default Goodyears

Had Bridgestones on my last Impreza and never again.
Goodyears crap on the Potenzas.
Agree about the road noise of Goodyears as have just stuck Michelin Pilot Sports on there and they're noticeably quieter.
Don't have enough data about different conditions' performance for the Michelins yet to recommend/reject but was very happy indeed with the Goodyears.
Better than Pirelli P Zero in my book.

F1's are a very good tyre and I have run them for the last few years for my summer tyre. The only time I moved away was for a set of Dunlop Sport Maxx GT's, which were good too, not quite as grippy and feelsome, but quieter and adecent option.
