Comparison: Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 vs. Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2

2 mutual test(s) with detailed data

When it comes to premium performance, both the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 and the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 stand out with their exceptional traits. However, some distinct features make up for a noticeable difference. The following is a comprehensive comparison of these two tyre models.


The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 replaces its predecessor models, the GoodYear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 and the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3. Made in Germany, Goodyear's latest model focuses on delivering excellent dry handling and comfort, while maintaining a significant exterior noise reduction and optimal mileage. In Autobild's comprehensive test of 50 tyres, the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 landed quite high, securing 2nd position. Not only did it show impressive performance with exceptional dry braking and handling, but it also proved to be strong in terms of mileage and price/value ratio. In the ADAC test, it secured the 4th position, indicating its consistent performance (Goodyear Manufacturer).


On the other hand, the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2, which is a UUHP summer tyre, excels in providing security against aquaplaning both cross and longitudinally. In Autobild's tyre test, the SP Sport MAXX RT2 landed in 13th place, out of the 50 tyres tested. Despite its strong performance in aquaplaning tests, it fell short in comparison to the Goodyear model in terms of overall performance. Even in ADAC's ranking, it landed in 9th position, falling behind the Goodyear model by a considerable degree (Dunlop Manufacturer).


While both tyres demonstrate their strengths, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 seems to be a more well-rounded performance tyre overall, capable of delivering optimal handling in both dry and wet conditions, along with standout features in comfort and noise reduction. The Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2, however, shines in its defences against aquaplaning, though it doesn't match the Goodyear model in overall test standings.


When focusing on price-value ratio, mileage, and external noise, the Goodyear model ranks higher, but for those in regions with high rainfall, the Dunlop model's aquaplaning defenses might be more appealing. In conclusion, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 emerges as a clear winner in performance and value, although the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 also has its strengths.
