I did not think they were noisy at all and would buy them again if I wanted an all season.

Love my Advan S.4; great feel, reasonable tread wear, and low noise - great combination.

Reggie - what's the reason you chose the Yokos over the Goodyear Eagle F1 All-Seasons?

Default My friend has the Goodyears on his R32 and they're really quiet. My Contis wake the dead...

they shriek and moan over even the simplest of maneuvers. Do you have experience with the Goodyears?

Default i've run Michelin pilot sport AS for years on M3s and now on my RS4

I'm very happy with them. They have very strong sidewalls which is critical for me. They work reasonably well in the snow, much better than summer tires, but they are not nearly as good as real winter tires. For me, it beats having to have to change tires twice annually.

I've heard good things about the Goodyear F1 all season but I have not tried them. I wonder what the sidewall performance through potholes is in particular.

Default No - just based on the review in Tire Rack and postings by drivers.

Default F1 Eagle All-Seaons: great tires

Just installed a set on my A4. Great tires -- would definitely recommend. Very happy I bought them. + there's a $50 rebate currently. Handle very well and don't seem too noisy. They don't squeal too much anyway ;-)!! anyway we drive RS4's, not A8's.

I'll probably replace my RS4's winter tires with these as it doesn't snow much where I live. Anyway I have my Lesbaru to handle the messy stuff.
