Comparison: Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 vs. Maxxis Premitra HP5 vs. Vredestein Ultrac Satin
The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 and the Maxxis Premitra HP5 tyres are popular summer tyres made by their reputed manufacturers, Goodyear and Maxxis, offering high performance and value.
The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 is a summer tyre valued for its solid performance, manufactured in Germany. It comes with no previous models and stands as a direct successor to the Asymmetric 2. Its ability to deliver impressive dry driving behavior was highly lauded in the ACE test, where it finished 8th out of 11 tyres. It achieved similar mid-pack results in other tests, placing 6th out of 10 tyres in Automotorsport and 8th out of 52 tyres in Autobild. This acclaimed tyre has been replaced today by the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5.
All the while, the Maxxis Premitra HP5 is a standout tyre for its excellent dry handling feature. Unlike Asymmetric 3, it doesn't have a newer model that replaced it yet. Against 11 tyres in ACE, the tyre performed admirably taking the 6th position. However, its performance in other tests was inconsistent where it made the 10th spot among 10 tyres in Automotorsport, and a decent 18th out of 52 tyres in Autobild giving it an overall rating of 56%.
In comparison, both tyres excel in summer conditions, yet each has its own set of strengths and weaknesses. Goodyear's strength lies in dry driving behavior, which makes it dependable and smooth. Maxxis, on the other hand, excels in dry handling inspiring confidence in the driver. A downside of Goodyear is that it was not ranked first in any mutual tests, while Maxxis demonstrated unstable results.
From the various tests, it's clear that the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 overall performed better than the Maxxis Premitra HP5, yet the latter offers strong competition notably in dry handling. Both tyres present considerable attributes for summer driving, with Asymmetric 3 being replaced by an advanced model and HP5 holding its ground with distinct features.
Ultimately, the choice between these two tyres depends on your specific requirements and expectations from your summer driving experience.
