Comparison: Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 vs. Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance vs. Falken e.Ziex vs. Continental PremiumContact 7

Sport meets economy: one Goodyear for drivers, one for commuters.

Goodyear's summer passenger range covers a wide spectrum, and nowhere is that clearer than when you place the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 alongside the Efficient Grip Performance. These two tyres share a badge but serve genuinely different drivers — one is a high-performance flagship built to win test group battles, the other a fuel-conscious everyday tyre designed to keep running costs low. Understanding which philosophy fits your driving style is the key to making the right choice from Goodyear's lineup.

Verdict

If you value performance, safety margins, and long tyre life — and you drive a car with 17" or larger wheels — the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 is the clear pick. It is one of the most consistently well-reviewed summer tyres in its class, and real-world owners back that up with near-perfect satisfaction ratings. For drivers of smaller cars who prioritise fuel economy over driving dynamics, the Efficient Grip Performance remains a valid choice — but if you're comparing it with its newer sibling, the Efficient Grip Performance 2 is the more current and better-performing version of that same efficiency philosophy. In short: choose the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 for sport and all-round excellence; consider the EGP range if economy is the priority and your car runs smaller wheel sizes.
