Comment:
I purchased these tyres on reviews & good price. What a big mistake. The tyres are very comfortable but that is where the praise ends. These tyres are shocking when i comes to feedback, they wobble when changing direction at any speed above 40 mph. It feels as though they are under inflated or almost flat & actually quite dangerous when changing direction. I think they are either faulty of have very soft side walls & that is with the extra load spec. I have run them over inflated to over 40 psi with no difference in handling just a more choppy ride.I have contacted Goodyear with my concerns & their response is that the tyres are not star marked for bmw cars, which basically means i should not have them on my car as bmw don't recommend them. I was told to take the tyres off and send them in to be checked, sure no car for weeks as they take a look at them and send them back with saying nothing wrong with them, don't think so. No way would i by Goodyear tyres again i'll stick to Michelin thanks. Tyres are now off the car as can't go the understeer / oversteer feeling every time i turn into a corner.
