Goodyear EfficientGrip

I bought the Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres for my Ford Focus Mk2 estate 1.8 TDCi. I was very pleased with them for the first 1000 miles. And then it all turned sour. The tyres are fitted to a car with freshly adjusted wheel alignment, on new Dezent alloy wheels, all brake discs in the car are new. After this 1000 miles I started to feel vibrations on the steering wheel, first up from 50 MPH, now from 45 already. The service has re-balanced the wheels – with no avail. They have examined the tyres on a balancer with road test function – it appeared one tyre was faulty, so it was sent for a complaint. I put my old Michelin tyres on the rear, but the vibrations didn’t stop. The rest of the Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres is unfortunately within Goodyear’s standards. I can see that my case is not the only one of such kind. In my opinion, these tyres are too rough and as they wear off, their quality also drops significantly. Unfortunately, I will have to throw them out (along with my 300 pounds) and go back to Michelin tyres. Because of that, I don’t recommend getting Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres. Read more Collapse

Goodyear EfficientGrip are the tyres I have fitted to my newly bought Ford Mondeo (160 BHP). I drive passenger cars a lot (company cars) and I try my best to buy safe tyres (not necessarily cheap ones) from various brands. I have done 15 thousand miles in two months and now I can objectively rate their quality. Goodyear EfficientGrip are one of the best tyres I have ever driven on, definitely the quietest ones. They provide great braking on both wet and dry surface. I didn’t notice the phenomenon other users did – the one about the vibrations (I can go 115 MPH on the motorway and nothing strange happens to them). In the corners they seem to be a bit too soft in aggressive driving. I’m not able to rate fuel consumption change as these are the original equipment tyres in a new car, but when it comes to rolling resistance, I think I can see the difference as guaranteed by the manufacturer when compared to other cars I drove. Generally, I find Goodyear EfficientGrip a very good tyre and I can recommend it with a clear conscience. Read more Collapse

The car I have Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres fitted to is a heavy vehicle with front wheel drive and a Diesel engine. The previous tyres I had were factory-fitted Pirelli P7. I think that compared to Goodyear, Pirelli tyres were harder and the car was stiffer. Now the front end of the car seems to sway at higher speeds. I use the same route when I go to work, so I can see the difference. Their great advantage is braking distance. The car stops almost on the spot. Previously, ABS was switching on during every sudden braking. Also, the fact is that my old tyres were already worn out. I got persuaded to buy Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres by reading reviews of other users and the manufacturer – low rolling resistance, noise level, influence on fuel consumption etc. As I see it now, everything was just a marketing trick, at least that’s my subjective opinion. Now I would go for some cheaper tyres. Pirelli did 45 thousand miles. We shall see what the mileage of Goodyear EfficientGrip will be. Read more Collapse

I have a heavy car with a powerful engine, and due to that all tyres wear off quite fast, including Goodyear EfficientGrip, but on the other hand, the driving comfort is excellent. The car goes in and out of the corners like on tracks. My passengers often are surprised that such a heavy estate with a modded Diesel engine can go 110 MPH in the corners. They ask me about the tyres, and when I say that I use Goodyear EfficientGrip and give them a price, they say they prefer to go slower and save some money… and then they buy used tyres. I preferred to buy new tyres and paid 100 pounds per tyre, at Oponeo – and the service stations want you to pay 160 pounds per tyre! Also, I rated their ice performance on 1, as such a tyre as Goodyear EfficientGrip shouldn’t be rated in winter conditions. I don’t drive like that and I find Goodyear EfficientGrip not suitable for snow and ice – that’s what winter tyres are for! Read more Collapse

Goodyear EfficientGrip are the tyres I have as factory fitted, I got them with my new Fiat Bravo. When it comes to comfort of use (noise level, economy, traction) – there’s nothing I can complain about. However, last week, when I was changing my tyres from winter ones (beginning of third season, mileage done on the tyres up to that moment – ca. 16 000 miles) it appeared that two of the tyres have quite large bulges on the inner edges, (one of them was quite large, and it was immediately classifying the tyre for replacing). Generally, I pay attention to the type and condition of surface I drive on and I slow down at bumps. As the city traffic learns, sometimes you have to drive on a curb. In my 10-year career of a driver, it was a first case of such. I have used Firestone, Barum, Pirelli and Dunlop tyres, and none of them tore apart the way Goodyear EfficientGrip did.

I bought Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres after having a good experience with winter Ultra Grip tyres for vans. I was pleased with them and that’s why I decided to get Goodyear tyres for my car as well. Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres surprised me positively with their rolling resistance – I checked it by stopping the car on a slight downhill. The car just rolls down. On any other tyres it would be slow rolling, and on Goodyear EfficientGrip the car definitely goes down. It can be also felt during acceleration, it seems like the car got more horsepower. Also, I have to add that I drive a new car, and I have an impression that I changed my shocks. When it comes to noise level, it’s a significant change compared to my previous Continental tyres I had, which were switched in a rental place. I have to say that Goodyear did a good job by doing Goodyear EfficientGrip. Read more Collapse

Goodyear EfficientGrip is a very good tyre on dry surface. On wet, with moderate driving style, suspension in good condition and proper air pressure it’s also excellent. It’s very quiet, compared to my previous Pirelli P7, which was definitely louder, even louder than the winter Michelin Pilot Alpin. I am not able to rate the durability of Goodyear EfficientGrip at the moment because the distance driven is too small to note any signs of wear. Also, I have to emphasize that in order to rate the driving properties of a tyre properly and to fully use its capabilities in all conditions, you have to adjust your wheel alignment correctly, have proper air pressure, correctly working suspension and fully balanced wheels. After I had my new Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres fitted, I did all of this and the tyres do their job perfectly. Read more Collapse

If I knew they were manufactured in the same way as Debica tyres, I wouldn't get Goodyear EfficientGrip at all. The manufacture is terrible - the tyres have bulges on the sides which are a result of bad forging (the layers overlap each other), the manufacturer claims it's safe and won't ground the complaint, and they can't be balanced for sure (and I don't have any problems with winter ones)... The car swerves side to side when driven on straights - the driving course is unstable, you have to stay focused all the time, I'm afraid of driving in ruts on these tyres! When my girlfriend sat behind the wheel, she asked if everything's fine with the car. My next tyres will be from the same brand as my winter ones. I'll nebver buy Goodyear EfficientGrip again.

Goodyear EfficientGrip look finelty manufactured at first glance.During the first fitting the tyre man noticed the tyres have slight side vibrations - when spun on the balancer, the tread pattern was not spinning in one course, and the tyres needed a lot of weights to be balanced. The wheels were checked when it came to damage and the appeared to be fine. As a result, in order to minimize the risk of "wheel swerving" while driving, the tyre had to be centered against the wheel to get the best position. To sum up, my old Michelin tyres kept their straight profile through the entire period of use, and new Goodyear EfficientGrip tyres had to be re-balanced and centered... I don't recommend Goodyear EfficientGrip because of such problems. Read more Collapse

Goodyear EfficientGrip are quiet tyres, which is their big advantage. They have low rolling resistance, but I didn't notice lower fuel consumption, as some users write in their reviews. Their drawback is their behaviour on pavement. The thing that on of the users called "new shocks" is true - the car becomes soft and sway-ish. If someone likes to sports driving style, then I definitely don't recommend. Goodyear EfficientGrip are designed for calm, confortable ride with low speeds. They behave unevenly in the rain and have the tendency for lateral aquaplaning. I won't buy Goodyear EfficientGrip again but I can imagine people who'll be their fans. Read more Collapse

These tyres were original equipment on my new Ford Mondeo Titanium X 163bhp Powershift estate. I was immediately disappointed with the road noise compared with my previous Mondeo. estate which was fitted with Good Year Eagle F1's. The tyres also feel harsh on rough surfaces. Biggest surprise came when I had to replace the front tyres at 7,900 miles as they were below the legal limit. (Eagle F1's on previous Mondeo Est.changed at 18k) Although the grip in both dry and wet conditions seems o/k I wouldn't recommend these tyres because of the high wear rate and the excessive road noise generated.

High standard and peace of mind for a reasonable price. They are good. They give a sense of comfort and safety while driving, surely for me.

I found the tyres very good in wet conditions. As the name suggests, efficiency grip. In the dry I feel as though they're on the edge of grip when pushed mildly. Pirellis might give better performance. Read more Collapse

If someone claims that these tires are decent I guess goes to church every Sunday and all .... Good to these tires do not fit ,, sufficient absolutely fantastic opinion on these tires ... Overcomes as Sales Representative about 4 - 5 thous. miles per month, as new tires received from the company. 18 degrees above the temperature of the tire is actually melt !!!! in its 12 year history reworked już- Nokian, Pirelli, Dunlop, Continental, and now the complete paszczury ... After about 40 complaints of different drivers in our company, we stopped to buy the brand. 2012 Toyota Avensis uses a wagon and never will order these tires, they actually pose a threat to life.

Mounted on a Jaguar XF 3.0 D of 275cv, 245/45/18 in this version is an excellent tire for day to day highly recommended for anyone who wants comfort and durability with good bonding. However the limit with a powerful car like this you can not get the quintessence the engine and the wheels may fail. I've had a Pzero Pirelli, Goodyear are superior in comfort and very far in life and go for 45000km Pirelli did not reach 30,000. But if one day I decided to get to work on the Pirelli car 275cv were stunning (dry) Goodyear has loosened the gas or you go off the road. Good wet the year are better in proportion to dry. If there is snow both go badly wrong. So strongly recommend purchase in smooth driving, wet summer. I do not recommend if you enjoy sporty driving with a powerful drive. Read more Collapse

The scenic III combo I had the impression that some surfaces like a slipping tire without giving a sense of control over what happens at the interface of the tire-asphalt. Those were my first impressions - tire factory installed in the new car. After a course of 50 thousand km feel strong teething. After four seasons spękała.Gdyby tire firmly to the tread does not crack have approx. 4 mm. In my humble opinion, a pair of gold are expensive Michelin, which, however, are much more durable and give a feeling of more control over the car. Currently changed to Michelin energy saver + and are definitely better. My opinion, of course, applies to these tires in the Megane III Read more Collapse

Tires had founded the factory, since the departure of the living room. I drove on them, including about 25,000 km, of which about 11.000 km on the road. Currently, the center tread on the drive wheels is completely smooth, the only remaining incisions on the side treads. In addition, after a half year of operation three tires had to be replaced (two - the bubbles, one - damaged edge). This is not my first car, or the first tire and so far I have not had such problems, driving even temporarily on Debice. To sum up - tires lead to great, are quiet and look good. On the other hand riding on them requires great caution, far more than the other models. Read more Collapse

I am dissatisfied. The tire was cheaper than in the service probably about 40 PLN but there were problems with balancing. 3h sitting in an authorized service center and deal with it is not advised. Balancing was efficient, suspension ok, alloy wheels around the steering wheel and in the test twitched. The only salvation was to postpone the tires on the rear wheel to keep twitching and so-so ride so far. How would I bought on the spot in the ASO I would have told them to give replacement and exchanged the tire and that I bought online store is to advertise it would have been without tire. Spared PLN 40 lost ten in lost time. Read more Collapse

I'll start with noise: nothing nadzyczajnego, ordinary tyres, read reviews here, I was expecting something more (and to forestall any such change bearings screaming so inform: the car is two years). After about 3 thousand. km and three visits to the re-balancing of the tyres turned out to be impossible to balance, no one knows why. I just hope that the company Goodyear considers the complaint and give the money because their products just do not want to have. Otherwise, we'll definitely mention that. To sum up: in addition to a nice appearance tyres turned out to be shoddy. Read more Collapse

Like a company with tradition and quality, at least in this model of tyres from China. After the reviews I see friends that I am not alone in the vibrations transmitted by the tyre on the wheel. When driving around town with a slower speed is not so much a pain, but in the longer distances becomes awfully tyresome and of course affects the suspension components in the car with full premeditation because I do not recommend these tyres, and Goodyear should withdraw as soon as possible from the sale of These defective tyres and return the money to drivers disappointed!!!!

I opted for a Good Year, due to the fact that it occurred in a variant XL and protective rant. This is important for me because the tire profile is quite low and so far all the other looked like under-inflated tires. On average, every month or complement was checking the tire pressure. Good Year For this problem to go away, there is the impression that there is no pressure in the wheels. I also believe that they are quieter than other tires which was using. So far not failed me on wet and dry surfaces. My next tire they will certainly Good Year. Read more Collapse

I got these tires with the car - 1 assembly. Tires made in Poland. Exercise correctly, although at speeds above 100 km / h unpleasant whistle. Whiz has a different tone depending on the type of surface, and is generally quite tiring. The problem is the quality. In one, on the side of the rubber broke it and began to creep out a charred piece of rubber, plastic ??? Two other on the side shown vertical bulge length of several centimeters. I've seen such a thing, but the old tire firmly "przechodzonych". These are practically new. Read more Collapse

Fatal tyres for compact camera. The sides of the soft tyres and you get the impression that the car is standing or goes to jelly. Despite the fact that the wheel does not budge, and I'm going straight ahead, I feel that I was going in the cradle that rocks back and forth. At the corners you need to take the amendment because tyres are behaving as if they were zlecieć the rim, which is not very precise twist-and it's not at all a bad tyre choice. And I chose them due to such opinions Internet. Unequivocal rolling noise is small Read more Collapse

Super tyre - highly recommended, because it is silent, ergonomic, but I would like to point out that the tyres with the system of Flat Run are only suitable for cars with air pressure sensors in the tyres! I unfortunately do not have, so needlessly invested in the tyres! Also, I note that the wheels on the wheels need to control pressure at least once a month, because if tyre pressure drops significantly consumes the sides! And so it happened! Therefore, it is a great tyre but have too much as this brand susceptibility to abrasion. Read more Collapse

Tyres very quiet (which made me very happy) I think because they are quite soft, which revealed a slight rocking the car, when you do a quick maneuver the wheel right, left, right - practically not noticeable in normal driving. In addition, I noticed that quite often require balance (I started it at the beginning of the summer season, and wyważałem them a total of 3 times) - I'll add that the more I ride on good roads. In conclusion, I would recommend it for people who appreciate great comfort at a reasonable price. Read more Collapse

Very good tire in the dry, made my car "light" to drive and aided by the reinforced sidewalls very precise steering, excellent feeling transmitted cornering than the Continental series. Honestly I have not seen an appreciable reduction in fuel consumption, but the comfort is good, and also aesthetically I have met thanks to the wide profile, square, shoulder lowered and very attractive design. I expected something more in the wet especially when braking where ABS intervenes early enough in the braking. Read more Collapse

Only 300 km behind me on these tyres but I can say that they actually feel less rolling resistance. The tyre holds up well in the corners and I did not notice that the car behaved uncertain (some advise from time to time replace the suspension geometry and ride because the holes in our weight, especially after the winter). I would add that in fact the tyre is quiet, the continued use of its utter somehow in August while at the same 6, in addition to driving in the snow, etc. because of the rubber tyres are!

Hi, I hesitated over the purchase of a tyre. But I'm glad that I chose this model. It is currently the latest model and I'm happy GY amazing. Swietne tyres on dry and wet roads. I ride aggressively (Renault scenic 150km) at the moment after driving about 4 thousand km I do not have the slightest comment. In all conditions the tyres come true, inhibition of the aggressive racing is very important for me, the tyres must be safe, and they are just so! Buy in the dark, I certainly pile to another car!

Excellent tires. Perfect for keeping dry and the wet, the car behaves in corners like glued to the asphalt. Very quiet and despite the size of 195/45R16 also very comfortably overcome inequality. After the passage of the size 185/60R15 (Michelin Energy Saver) fell Zużucie consumption by 0.4 l/100km, which seems unbelievable and speaks well for the technology used in the production of these tires. Edge protection and attractive design wheels complete the picture. I highly recommend these donuts. Read more Collapse

The tire has good handling properties. Fuel economy is not noticed. Unfortunately, after several thousand steering wheel began to tremble. Tires bought counting on at least 0.5l lower fuel consumption and unfortunately here in August disappoint addition, the steering wheel slightly trembling can piss off.

I bought the tyre of choice for the Ford Focus ST 220HP. I drive mostly in the city soon. Currently drove some 8 thousand kilometers (2010 season) I judge them now because I just reminded myself of them (a few days ago have changed from winter) tyres are great. Scary it rains or Shusha on the road. I'm happy and hard cater to my tastes! Rolling resistance does not exist, none abrasion after the 8 thousand km, zero noise. Really one of the best on what ridden. Boldly recommended! Read more Collapse

Choosing the president choose the lesser evil, selecting efficient grip you choose the best good. This is my first new tyre in my life, but at the same time that I just bought.

After about 30.000 km tyre clashed a little, but in the standard. Very good in the wet, but inhibits much more effectively than moving. In a dry cool. It seems to me that tyre is sensitive to air pressure. Slightly too high - no longer absorb and become unstable over bumps. Slightly too low - it gets too soft, auto "placed" on the corners, very unstable in the ruts. The difference is + / - 0.2 bar. In my case (b4 passat variant 1.8 90HP) 2.3 bar is optimum.
