I had Goodyear Eagles on my Audi cabriolet - granted much smaller than the Crossfire's but none the less - scariest tire ever in the rain would lose total traction. Getting on to the highway would slow below posted MPH - once entire car slipped out sideways, changed to Firestone Firehawks - quieter; and never had a problem with traction again - so knew it wasn't the car (or me) Took a leap of faith for me to put the F-1's on - but tread pattern was nothing like the Eagle, and Tirerack rated them highly. If Eagles were my only choice - I'd sell the car!
