New Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 - Worryingly bad grip :(

[EdButler]

36 is the RFT pressure. The load rating of the Goodyears is the same as the stock M tyre. As my car is approx 50kg lighter, 33psi should be perfect. I've used the same pressure on all my previous non RFT's with the same load rating.

Definitely the correct way around. Will report after another 200 miles! If still rubbish, I'm booking a drift day...

I've had mine at 36 psi since they've been on (approx 12,000 miles) and have had no issue's. Infact, the car seems to ride noticeably harder when the pressures are down a few psi.

+1

Run mine at 33 on the front and 36 on the rear.

All sorted now guys, thanks for your help. It needed 300 miles of bedding in, but now have full confidence in them, thank goodness!

It says on my door sticker to run at 32 all round so surely that's a bit high pressure ?

Depends what wheels you have!

What size are your current wheels and tyres?

If 18inch staggered fitment then it should be:

225 40 18 92 Y XL (Front)
255 35 18 94 Y XL (Rear)

If 18inch non staggered then it should be:

225 40 18 92 Y XL (Front and Rear)

I can't help with 16 & 17inch sizes as i have never had them myslef.

Camskill nd Black circle have both worked for me but do check they have sent the right tyres - I had inferior tyres fitted at the front and they had to reorder and change them again. . . .

cheers ash, just found a company called tyre leader, £380 with the sizes you gave me which were spot on, [cheers] going to have the wheels refurbed first, thinking of having them black powder coated, saw a few pics on here and looked mint, will post a few pics when its all done, now looking for new pads allround, may aswell go the full hog. !!!!

If you plan on having wheels done, then i suggest you get the loose tyres price (i.e not fitted price) as it will be even cheaper.

When they do your wheels they will remove the old news and fit the new ones free of charge in most cases

I have used Lovetyres and Camskill in the past and have found both to be excellent and excellent prices.
