Asymmetric tyres?

Post by Busterboo » Sun Aug 27, 2017 11:19 pm

This question is about tyres with asymmetric treads in general and not Goodyear Eagles in particular.

If you have asymmetrics, why did you choose them?

And would you choose them again?

Goodyear asymmetric 2s on 19 inch rims, lowered car on Eibachs. Came to the tyre through reviews on the forum. No issues ride is firm and it's not a soft tyre but I've found the grip is excellent.

Just fitted assy 3 all round based on good feedback and reviews bit early to tell yet. But compared to run flat...incredible difference.
Not great when you hit large pot holes in the lakes after a week of ownership though. :headbang:
