Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 in Front and Eagle F1 Asymmetric in Rear? *Tire Experts*

dArNeLLi · 10-03-2008, 11:02 AM

Got two blown wheels, the asymmetrics are 60 bucks cheaper a tire, and with better performance in wet and dry situations, would running the gs-d3s in the front and asymmetrics in the back effect handling that much?

Also, RE01Rs are the other option, but it only comes in 275/30/19, would this rub in my car running the DPE wheels (r07 variant S)? what if I lower with pss10s or kwv2s?

Thanks in advance.

Not too much actually. In this case you'll have the better tire in the rear, so the front end may feel a bit more loose, and the car may understeer a bit more. I wouldn't suggest putting F1 GSD3's rear and F1 Asym's up front, but the other way around as you're suggesting wouldn't be unsafe IMO.
