Comparison: Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 vs. Pirelli P ZERO vs. Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 2 K117 vs. Vredestein Ultrac Satin vs. Maxxis Premitra HP5 vs. Continental PremiumContact 6
The following comparison is between the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 and the Pirelli P ZERO, which are popular models produced by Goodyear and Pirelli respectively, both high-profile manufacturers in the tyre industry. Both tyres are summer type, catering to optimal performance in dry and wet conditions characteristic of the season.
The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3, a model made in Germany, has made a name for its low rolling resistance as cited in the Automotorsport comparison. This feature particularly speaks of the tyre's fuel efficiency. The model also ranks first for its dry driving behaviour in ACE's testing, asserting its superior performance in dry conditions. Despite not having a previous version, the tyre has been replaced by a newer model, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5.
On the other hand, the Italian-made Pirelli P ZERO stands out for its brilliant handling capacities -- whether dry or wet. Automotorsport acknowledges this model for its dry handling, dry lane changing, dry steering response, wet handling, and wet safety functionalities. Dry braking and wet circle cornering capabilities are also features the tyre is lauded for in ACE's review. As of now, there's no newer model that has replaced the P ZERO.
When it comes to mutual tests positions, both tyres have had fair shares of top positions in various evaluations. In detail, the Goodyear model has secured the first position in Automotorsport, second in Sport Auto and GTU, and third in Sportscars. Unfortunately, this tyre didn't have good performance in the ACE test, where it ended up eighth. The Pirelli P ZERO, conversely, managed the fourth position in GTU, fifth in Automotorsport and Sport Auto, sixth in Sportscars, albeit settling for a seventh spot in ACE.
In conclusion, the decision between Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 and Pirelli P ZERO is subjective and depends greatly on the driver's priorities. If fuel efficiency and dry driving behaviour are the top concern, the former may be the better choice. However, for those emphasising handling capabilities in dry and wet conditions, Pirelli P ZERO may prove themselves as a worthy candidate. Regardless of the choice, it's clear that both models deliver excellent performance as summer tyres, each with its own strengths.
