Hi..
Anyone experience with Goodyear Eagle F1 Sport?.. good?
tq

this should be the new tyre to replace the existing F1 Directional 5
relatively new tyre, still pending review

Officially launched in Malaysia back in December 2020, the F1 Sport sits right at the bottom of Goodyear's Eagle F1 series tires - perhaps a move by Goodyear to capture the budget/economy UHP market.

In terms of price, F1 Sports is the cheapest, followed by F1 Asymetric 5 and then F1 SuperSports. However F1 Sports is only available for 16-18 inch wheels for now.

Not much reviews available online for this tire due to the limited availability. Currently only available in our region - Malaysia Thailand & Australia. It's not available in US/Europe where tire reviews/testing are more prevalent.
Would like to hear comments from local owners on this tires tho.

My car have been using stock size tyres similar to yours, 205/45r17. Changed from Contisportcontact 5 to Continental MC6 in Sept 2019 and to Goodyear Eagle F1 sport in Sept 2020. Reason for the change from MC6 to Eagle F1 sport is due to a sidewall bulge in one of the tyre, likely bad road surface and potholes. In summary, I would rate the tyres in the following order (better to worst):
Handling in general - MC6 > CSC5 > EF1S
Comfort - EF1S > MC6 > CSC5
Noise at <80km/h - EF1S > MC6 > CSC5
Noise at >80km/h - EF1S = MC6 > CSC5
Rolling resistance - EF1S > MC6 = CSC5

I can't comment much on braking, as I havent done any E-brake. But felt EF1S need to start braking slightly earlier, compared to MC6/CSC5. Braking confident is slightly better in MC6.

Immediate feel of the tyre is that EF1S is a lot more comfortable (felt rounded when run over uneven surface) and less noisy at low speed. I will give MC6 the edge for confidence at higher speed cornering. Also, I notice the fuel consumption has been alot lower on the EF1S (12 to 14km/L) compared to MC6 (9 to 10 km/L).

Cheers.

Very surprising to see mc6 trumps csc5 in handling
Mind to share more details

Handling is subjective which depends on type of car and need a pro driver to really give a correct representation of handling. Thus, I mentioned 'handling in general', which in context of driving over progressive bends (usually at highway entries/exits) at speed between 50-60 km/h. My car (engine: NA, less than 100hp/135nm) fitted with mc6 is able to take this corner confidently, close to 60 km/h, and still able to point sharply. CSC5 felt 'loose' and I will ease the throttle a little to 50km/h or lower. This difference is really depends on the type of car and driver's confidence. This thread is for the Goodyear Eagle f1 sport.

For more scenarios, do gather more information of the mc6 and CSC5 from https://www.tyrereviews.com/Tyre/Continental/

Which one is better overall? EF1S or MC6. I plan to switch my current 4-year-old MC5 tyres to EF1S. I wanted to go for Michelin PS4 but I can't afford it.

Since you mentioned better overall, I would assume you daily your vehicle and not spirited driving. For daily vehicle, I would emphasize on low rolling resistance and comfort oriented tyres, which is the eagle F1S. The 6months assurance by goodyear is an added value, should anything happened to the tyres.

Conti UC6/MICHELIN PRIMACY 4 /GOODYEAR F1 SPORT
which 1 is the best?
UC6 same price as Primacy 4 RM325
F1 SPORT RM250.
205/55/16.

UC6 and Primacy 4 are comfort touring tires and just 1 category higher than their respective economic low end models (Cc6 and XM2). F1S on the other hand is already in the UHP category which is another step up. If the F1S is that much cheaper then it's surely a much superior value for money.

I agreed with you, i just worry the noise level for F1S.

Next change for 215 55 17 might consider this GY F1 Sport (to replace current Primacy 3)
But difference is RM390 for GY F1S vs RM407 for Primacy 4 If compare PS4 is RM470

Looks like this new F1S will be the new king of value for money replacing the Hankook V12E2. Just unfortunately it's not available in 15'.

Nice. How is this tyre compared to PS4?

Rm255 per piece, size 195/50/16 at ban hooi kapar klang. Replacing stock toyo r50 on yaris, this F1s is noticably noisier, but it is expected from uhp tire. Threadwear stated 300, traction AA, temperature A.

Anyone knows what's the price for F1S 235/45/17? Love to go back to F1 if price is right now running Nexen SU1

Guys..

Anymore feedback with this tyre..?

Thanks

Tire sidewall has thick rim protection. If u are into meatier or beefier tire setup it will be good choice

Saw it at fren shop, made in tiongkok

anyone know the different between sport and asymmetric and which one more expensive. thanks
