In this article, we'll compare two high-end summer tyres - the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 and the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127. Ranked at 100% and 82% in our internal rating respectively, both tyres are reputable products of their respective manufacturers - Goodyear and Hankook.
The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 delivers versatility with an impressive mix of safe understeer balance and sporty handling. The tyre exhibits excellent performance across several tests including "Dry braking", "Dry handling", "Wet handling", and "Comfort". Its strong performance qualifies it as an all-rounder and a reliable choice across varying road conditions. One minor downside mentioned by some users is its lack of heat resistance during track use compared with its predecessors, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 and 5.
The Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127, on the other hand, offers excellent value for money, and is noted for its commendable wet grip and energy efficiency. Some downsides observed include a slower steering response, which gives the tyre a comfort bias rather than a sporty feel. The tyre also exhibits some weakness in aquaplaning resistance. Despite these minor drawbacks, the tyre remains a worthy choice for its price/value ratio.
In recent mutual tests such as the ACE and AutoMotorSport tests, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 often took top spots over the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127. It is notable, however, that the Hankook tyre also held its own in these tests, particularly shining in areas like "Wet braking" and "Dry braking".
Autobild’s testing saw the Goodyear tyre retain its top spot with its excellent performance across a number of areas including exterior noise level, comfort, mileage, and value for money. In these same tests, the Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 secured its position within the top three, showcasing its strength particularly in "Dry braking" and "Wet handling".
In summary, if top-of-the-line performance is your main concern, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 seems to have the upper hand in this matchup. However, if price/value ratio and energy efficiency are your priorities, Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 might be the better choice for you.
