Michelin PS2 vs. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric?
« on: 29 September 2009, 10:56 »
Sorry if this has been posted before but i couldn't find a satisfactory answer by searching.

Could someone who has driven their mk5 (gti if possible) on both of these tires comment on their performance?

Thanks.

I have had them both though not on a GTi, it was on a BMW and the Michelin won it for me and they lasted longer too!!  :wink:

I've tried both and there is nothing in it in the dry. I've found the goodyears last longer and the michelins were worse in the wet and lethal in frosty/snowy conditions

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

So you are getting 6000 miles out of the front pair of Assymetrics? Do you do track days? I replaced all 4 at 29,000 and now with 10,000 on them they still have a good lot of miles left...
