Passenger Car Summer Max Performance Tyres Tyre Review Highlights
Bridgestone Potenza Sport — rated 87%
while driving a Honda S2000 for 1500 miles
Have these on my S2000, it has no traction control, so wanted a tyre with awesome grip. Finding it a very predictable tyre, fits an S2000 very well.<br />
<br />
Will be buying them again.

Pirelli P Zero — rated 81%
while driving a Hyundai i20N for 20000 miles
I’ve used them on the i20N and 208 GTI. They take a while to warm up, but once they do, the handling is fantastic. The compound is quite hard. This makes them a bit uncomfortable, but the durability is superb. They tend to slip a lot when cold. The performance in the rain is definitely poor. I had no complaints about noise levels. A top-tier tire for use in dry and hot weather.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 — rated 74%
while driving a Audi A3 for 4000 miles
These tires came as factory tires on my Audi A3. It’s a tire that takes a while to warm up. Once it’s warmed up, it grips well. However, even though it’s a 150 HP car, it tends to spin its wheels more than expected in 1st and 2nd gears. It can also exhibit understeer in corners. I’m not entirely sure how much of this is due to the car itself. I didn’t like its performance in the rain at all. It fell short of my expectations. Also not exactly a quiet tire.

BFGoodrich g Force Phenom TA — rated 81%
while driving a Suzuki Swift Sport 1.4 ZC33S for 20000 miles
These BF Goodrich Phenom were in fact so much underrated that it suppose to be. I'm on the second set on these awesome rubbers!<br />
<br />
Dry grip is above my expectation with the correct setup of suspension and camber + toe setting, an ease of corner abilities by holding the car in each corner after corner. Sidewall is tough enough to support the weight transfer of the car during absolutely spirit driving.<br />
<br />
Wet performance is above average, they tend to grip well and doesn't prone to any aqua planning hazard, at least from my personal usage during heavy rain with puddles of liquid on road.<br />
<br />
Comparing against previous tyre, Yokohama Apex, Pilot Sport 5 and MC7, these tyre easily gain better performance than the rest any time, giving its price to performance.<br />
<br />
Only cons is that, road noise significantly loud after 50% tread life, well, its an UHP anyway.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S — rated 100%
while driving a Audi for 20000 miles
Best Tyres I have ever driven on.<br />
<br />
The car was delivered with Bridgestone Potenza S001, I initially thought it couldn't get any better. <br />
When the tyres wore out all reviews pointed towards the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.<br />
<br />
For me the most noticeable difference was breaking in the wet. The 4Ss started breaking with no delay as if the road was dry.<br />
<br />
Always provided loads of grip regardless of road conditions (dry, wet, hot or cold) at any speed.<br />
Car was driven often on the German Autobahns at high speeds (exceeding 155mph), always loads of grip.<br />
<br />
Very comfortable tyres.

Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport — rated 82%
while driving a Hyundai I30N for 14000 miles
Specific version of tyre: Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport A0 (Audi spec)<br />
Conditions: Daily<br />
Replaced at: 22,500 km, rotated once at 7,000 km and a second time at around 15,000–16,000 km<br />
Immediate improvement over the P Zero PZ4 in terms of instant grip without requiring much tyre warm-up.<br />
Great feedback, great grip — the tyre never let me down.<br />
Only downside is less stiff sidewalls compared to the PZ4, though this could be due to it being an Audi spec compound.

Pirelli P Zero PZ4 — rated 76%
while driving a Hyundai I30N for 13700 miles
Specific version of tyre: Pirelli P Zero PZ4 HN (Hyundai spec)<br />
Conditions: All + 1 track day<br />
Replaced at: 22,000 km, rotated once at 11,000 km<br />
When tires are warm — grip, feedback and progressiveness is excellent<br />
Low grade was given for "buy again" due to the tyre not working well at lower temperatures (spring) and needing time to heat up - for a daily tyre.

Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 — rated 86%
while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTI for 20000 miles
Outstanding wear. Used them on track a few times. They're a little bit soft on the front axle but otherwise an amazing fast road tire

Bridgestone Potenza Sport Evo — rated 96%
while driving a BMW 318D for 1000 miles
Put them on BMW E91 LCI rwd. Currently it is spring in Croatia so the temperatures go down (5,6 degrees) and up (25 degrees). Driven them hard on open road and in the city rush. First impression - comfort. Second impression - the amount of grip. I am glued to the road. I hope this version (Evo) lasts longer than Potenza Sport. I will get back with another review in the end of their life span. 10/10 experience. I wanted the F1 eagle asymetric 6 but the production is slow these days and they were not available. This was my second choice.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 — rated 93%
while driving a Alfa Romeo Giulia 2.2d rwd 180hp for 9000 miles
It’s been 1 year & 11.000 km of use, for me it’s a 100% recommended tyre.<br />
They give nice feedback & feeling to the wheel. They grip exceptional in dry & wet conditions, you have to try a lot to find their limit. They have a quiet rolling & of course they wear fast as a sport tyre should do (the last 2 photos is the difference between front & rear wear after 11.000km). Personally I am a Pirelli pzero fan but since I didn’t have the choice of them at my dimensions I had to choose something else & now I can definitely say that I would buy Goodyear again

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 — rated 90%
while driving a BMW 525d E61 Touring M Sport for 12500 miles
Great overall tyres with steady wear around 13,000 miles per tyre, pretty good on my heavy E61 525d!

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 — rated 84%
while driving a Skoda Octavia vRS for 10000 miles
Used these many times now across 2 cars covering over 30000.Mainly used on fast B and 15% roads on A roads both in the dry and wet from freezing cold to really warm (25C).<br />
Great fun in all conditions although not the most grip overall compared to PS4/5.Comfort/noise are good also.<br />
However given the price significant price difference,I've bought these at £95,and the fun factor I will defo buy again.
