When the tires were first put on I noticed increased road noise. After some use the tire seam adaquite. Traction is okay the tires loose grip if taking off with 1/2 throttle. The tires handle very well in the rain unless your trying to pass then it looses grip. So far the ware is marginal. I'm happy with the purchase.

I really wanted to like these tires.But they are very noisy and loud at speeds over 50 mph. On speaker phone, callers ask what the loud background noise is while im driving. unlike with my previous tires. They handle much better, but my 45 series profiles have very stiff sidewalls so every bump and imperfection is amplified. They are a much stickier tire, so i lost a few mpg. On cement freeways, the ride over 60 mph is horrible with a slapping sound. I am embarrassed to give others a ride if it involves any cement roads, On rough asphalt they roar. On smooth pavement, they are smooth and very quite. It's like day and night. I now have 45k miles on them and they do wear really well. I can probably go another 20K miles till replacement. I will be choosing a different tire next time, these didnt work out well for me

The staff, had initially placed a new tire on a bent rim, that I believe they bent allowing the tire to bounce as they took it off my car. They chose not to tell me that the rim was obviously bent, and chose to renin quiet and install the new tire anyway. Then they placed the front tires, a different size, on the rear, and as i drove away the bigger rear tires were rubbing the wheel wells. I was stuck for tires on July 4th, otherwise I would never go there again.

I bought the Goodyear Eagle Sport tires to replace a set of another brand's tires I never really liked (somewhat mushy handling) and now I'm on my second set of the Goodyear's. The improvement in grip was so noticeable compared to the previous tires I ended up getting larger anti-roll bars to take advantage of the additional grip. In addition, for the same size tires, the Goodyear's were over an inch wider. Traction is also excellent in the rain, seemed pretty good in the one snow we had after I got them. Trade-off is a bit more firmness over some of the crappier roads here in the DFW. But every time I turn the wheels, take an off ramp or go through a tight curve it's worth the slightly rougher ride. Best of all is I do get very close to the 50,000 mile treadwear rating, I bet if I hadn't neglected rotating the tires the last 15-20,000 miles on the last set, I might have made it. 30,000 or so miles on the current set and a lot of life left.

Pleasantly surprised with the grip this tire provides under both dry and wet conditions. Super pleased when on a road trip we were cruising 60+ and unexpectedly hit a stretch of highway with standing water about 3/4" deep for twenty to thirty yards distance and these didn't hydroplane. I was expecting a real handful in that situation but these tires were exceptionally well behaved. Plus its just a fun tire to drive on.

I purchased these tires to replace the Goodrich OEM tires that came with my car. After 6 weeks, I am very happy with them. They're smooth and comfortable while highway cruising, and provide solid grip when I challenge then in corners or off ramps. They are a great fit for my Nissan 350Z.

Tires always come with trade offs. There are two ways to achieve desired attributes: tread pattern and tire composition. Aggressive treads like this one are grippier and can usually handle adverse weather, but are noisier than a less aggressive tread. Harder compounds (this one is slightly on the firm side) lose some traction and give a harsher ride, but increase tread life and durability. There are grippier fair weather tires to be sure, such as the F1 series, and grippier dedicated tires for ice and snow. However it's difficult to find a great all-around, all weather tire that has a high speed rating, is responsive, provides great wet traction and at least moderate to good snow and ice. Third set of Eagle Sport GT's that I have purchased. Dry weather grip is well above average. Wet weather is outstanding, and for a V/Z speed rated tire the winter grip is amazing. Only non-winter tire I've ever had grip wet ice. Aggressive driving usually nets me 35,000+ miles a set with rotations.

So far, so good. Tires are performing better than expected. I only have one question: Tires don't need those little weights on the edges of the wheels for balancing anymore? I don't see any on mine, which makes me wonder if the balancing was done. Thank you.

As an Uber driver, I needed a tire that tread life would last a long time, and have great handling charactistics, and give up no luxury ride quality all at the same time. I drive a 1k miles a week in my city. These tires have all of the characteristics that I mensioned. It allows me to get to people a lot faster, and it doesn't kill my kidneys when the car hits a pothole. I only wish these had come on standard on my 13 Cadillac ATS. I'm NOT missing the old tires on this car at all.

Tires handle well and traction seems good. The road noise on these tires offsets any other positive attibutes. I can't wait for these tires to wear out so I can replace. You can't hear yourself think because the road noise is so loud on these tires. You have to turn the radio up way too loud to drown out the road noise. Worst tires I have ever owned. I doubt I will ever purchase Goodyear tires again Originally tried to order Comfort Tread Touring, but they were out of stock and couldn't tell me when they would be back in stock. These were recommended instead. What a terrible mistake.
