Default Goodyear Eagle F1's

Does anyone have any experience with these tires, I can get a good deal on a set for my 19" rims but would like to hear some feedback about them. Thanks!

Default They are terrific tires! I had them on my old 18s last year...

Excellent dry and wet road handling. Also relatively quiet and provides a comfortable ride. I also used them on a track. They held the corners really well. I got about 20K miles out of them. They'll last longer without the abuse from the track. I have a new set waiting to go onto my OEM RS4 wheels in a few weeks.

Check with TireRack.com as they seem to be offering a sale on them right now.

Default They almost seem better in the wet than the dry

Scary high wet limits, for me anyways. But it's good to know that I should be able to count on them if the need arises.

Default Have them on my 944 turbo and love them

They look great and perform well. Only 2 minor knocks:

1. they seem like they take 5 miles to warm up

2. they roll a little in corners. not sure if you woul dnotice this on an A4 though

Default Make sure you get the DS3s. The normal F1s are OEM tires on the R32...

and the VW guys have been known for hitting a pot hole and bubbling the sidewall.

I have the DS3s and IMO they are better tire than Toyo T1S and Michelin Pilot Sport.
