I am running Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 2 on 2011 CC
That said, after picking the tire I thought would provide the best value I found the Goodyear Comfort Tread Touring was the same bottom line price locally because of a big rebate. Made in USA and may be the best tires I have ever owner.
I guess that's the end of my third set of Sumi HTR Z IIIs... I really like those tires for the price. And until that little scare... I ever had a clue the back tires were 1/2 slicks even in the rain.
Decided to go with GoodYear Assurance Comfortred Touring tires. Already put on 400 miles on them and I have no complaints yet. However... they ride better than the previous tires. The Comfortred sticks to the road and at high rate of speed (80mph) was a slight noise level to them but after riding on them, I do not hear any noise from them.
The tire I decided to go with is the Goodyear Eagle RS-A2 P245/45R19, as it is almost the exact diameter of my stock P225/65 16" tires, and they were an affordable choice ($185 Canadian).
I looked up a review of the PS3's and found a comparison test between those, the Eagle's, the Continental asymmetrical all season and another tire. I was most interested in the PS3 but after reading the review/tests it seems the Eagle may suit my priorities better- the biggest being fuel consumption. Of the 4 the Eagle picked up an extra mile and change worth of MPG over the PS3. Both did well in the dry and wet handling trials.
Just last week I changed out my Stock Conti's @ 37,000 miles to Goodyear Eagle F1 AS. The tires are good and well made, but are a little more nosiy.
I have them on my 86. The sidewalls are OK, not great. They do leave something to be desired as far as cornering, as they seem to break loose with little warning.
Thanks Jason! I was wondering why my GY F1 255/35/19's were rubbing in the rear. After I went with the GY's it started, no rub with the factory Contis.
mine are very noisy at about 40kmh/25mph.
