Default Re: Goodyear Eagle F1 All Season Tires

I got mine installed today. Fumbled into $100 in rebates. Discount tires (local store) matched tire rack and I got them for the same price Longhaul is quoting. All said and done, $880 after rebates with full roadside and installed.

All I have noticed is a slightly stiffer ride. They don't grip like I was expecting, but that is ok.
I can smoke the tires with a little effort, where it took more effort before my Pilot Sports before they wore down.
I have not driven them in the rain or snow, but I'll report when I do.
Saturday I start my roadtrip from Nashville to KC. I'll report anything interesting with the tires the first of next week.

I took a couple pics with my phone and will post them... eventually.
