Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance tyres

Post by muffin8118 »

I had a pair fitted at a Halfords Autocentre near where I work for £250.68.

They were put in the rear whilst the old pair was swapped with the worn front pair. They seem quieter than the Pirelli Cinturato P7s. I chose them because they were Autoexpress's tyre of the year.

Tyres tend to get noisier as they wear so it can be difficult to tell whether the reduced noise is down to the fact it's a new tyre or down to it being a diffetent manufacturer / model of tyre.

Although they don't have the ultimate grip of F1 A2s they do get good reviews and are more durable.
