Question

Has any one tried the new F1 tyre's from Goodyear, any good? A friend has them on his Audi S3 and loves them. On my old 16 inch alloys I had Bridgestone S3's, liked them but they tram lined a lot. Currently running the standard Pirelli P1's on P1 17 inch alloys and quite pleased with them but was wondering if there is anything better out there?

Cheers

Chris

Thumbs up

I changed to F1's about 2 weeks ago from the Pirelli on my P1. I hated the pirelli and love the F1's. Would recommend them-better in wet and dry IMHO-and they look better.

I've got the previous revision of F1 GS-D2 (D3 is now current).

I love em, grippy but great fun on roundabouts where you can have some fun on the throttle

I too am running on the previous style F1s - good in the wet and the dry but they do chuck up a lot more spray than the potenza which makes the car dirty!

Probably the finest rubber money can buy...

Maybe the finest but the best overall value must go down to the Toyo Proxes T1-S. Just had 4 16" tyres fitted for £332 all incl.

Cool

I paid £100 per corner for 215/40/17 on the new GS D03 design.
Think there is a link on here for them cheaper than that.
