Goodyear Eagle GT Tires

[infamous]

Brand:Goodyear Eagle GT
Size:225/35WR20
Price:170 Each CDN (off season sale)
Purchased From: Autostyling Niagara


Installation: Not a diy ,Tire shop did the work
Installation Time:1 hour
Any Installation Tips You Have: Installer said to run my size 10lbs less than what it recommends on the tire. Will cause the tire to wear faster and ride rougher.

Quality of Part:8 out of 10
In the rain it hydroplanes alot and kicks up alot of water on car behind me. My friend was driving behind me one night in the rain and he said it kicked up as much water as a semi truck. Looks aggressive with the dual patterns and is uni-directional so you don't have to remember what side of the car it was on.

Performance of part:8.5 out of 10
When its hot and dry it sticks!! Road noise is average for a tire with less than 2" of side wall and so is ride,There are other sizes with more of a sidewall. In the wet is OK not the greatest but most performance tires are.Drove a whole summer on them and there still at +70 percent thread, and I do alot of driving. Highway trips are smooth as silk as long as theres no dips or bumps.

Would you Recommend to Others: Yes anyday

I had these tires on my car for over 40K miles and hated them. They were very loud, and didnt care for them. I now have Yokohama Avid TRZ's... much cheaper, much quieter, and better handeling.

Re: Goodyear Eagle GT Tires

My only things I have noticed is that they wander on the road and that my car spins them very easily. But with a few hundred miles they're not too bad. Not much noise and seemed alright in the rain. Wish I would have spent a little more and bought continental extreme contact dws.

I actually have the ExtremeContact DWS, got them from TireRack. They also wonder just a tad on dry pavement, more than the stock Hankooks did. Though they were bald when I replaced them so on dry pavement, they gripped like a champ . The DWS's though are good in the snow.

Re: Goodyear Eagle GT Tires

im not sure what "wander" on the road means.. idk how you guys are driving yours and id say infamous and cav arent to hard on them having 20" wheels, but i have no complaints at all. i thought they rocked even with a couple inches of snow and during/after a good rain

They tend to follow imperfections like ruts and things of that such in the rd.
