Goodyear’s new Eagle F1 SuperSport has topped the first ever Ultra Ultra High Performance (UUHP) test conducted by Tyre Reviews, a leading online review website.

The test, which reviewed eight different tyre brands at Continental’s test facility in Uvalde Texas, used a BMW M2 with 245/35 R19 on the front axle and 265/35 R19 on the rear. The extensive test covered all major tyre test disciplines including dry and wet handling, dry and wet braking, aquaplaning, rolling resistance, noise and comfort with particular focus on the subjective aspects of these tests.

The tyre draws on Goodyear’s racing experience to provide superior grip and handling and did just that with superb results across the board putting it at the top of the podium.

Jonathan Benson, owner of Tyre Reviews, gave top marks to the new Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport, reporting that it performed “excellently in the key dry and wet handling testing, with great steering feel and balance whatever the conditions.”

The tyre performed notably well in the wet handling test with Jonathan saying “this is where the new Goodyear excelled, offering a really neutral balance between the front and the rear of the car, while providing excellent grip across the lap.”

Mike Rytokoski, Chief Marketing Officer, Consumer Europe at Goodyear added: “We are thrilled with the results of the test, we knew we had a superior tire on our hands when we launched it earlier in the year but to have this endorsed by such an influential and knowledgeable website such as Tyre Reviews really proves the performance of the new range.”
