Today, we’re discussing two top-tier summer tyres: the Giti Gitisport S2 and the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6. These tyres represent the state of the art offerings from Giti and Goodyear respectively.
Let's start off with the Giti Gitisport S2, it's a summer tyre with no previous models or newer replacements. According to our tests, it does outshine in some aspects, notably handling on wet surfaces and aquaplaning safety. SportAuto's tests found this tyre to be in 10th position out of the 11 tyres tested, and Autobild placed it at 19th out of 50, with the best feature being its handling in aquaplaning conditions. However, the Gitisport S2 does have its weaknesses such as less precise steering and handling, and longer braking distances on dry road surfaces.
On the other hand, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 shines in various categories. This is far from surprising considering it followed two successful predecessors. Our score rates it at 100%, a significant win over the Gitisport S2. In SportsAuto's tests, the Goodyear tyre clinched 2nd position, especially excelling in dry braking, lane changing, and steering responses, plus wet braking. Interestingly, Autobild's test also rated the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 in 2nd place among 50 tyres. The test highlighted the tyre's strengths such as dry handling and braking, comfort, mileage, and cost-effectiveness. Although the Goodyear tyre did have minor grip issues in wet corners.
While both tyres offer a fair share of desirable features, the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 definitely stands as the superior choice in almost all tested categories. Its overall performance, their consistency on both wet and dry roads, and excellent value for money make it a strong competitor. Despite this, the Giti Gitisport S2 also proves itself as a strong contender on wet surfaces and for drivers looking for effective aquaplaning safety.
In conclusion, selecting between these two tyres ultimately rests on your driving needs and conditions. We recommend the Giti Gitisport S2 for those who frequently tackle wet roads, while those seeking comprehensive performance across a spectrum of conditions will find optimal satisfaction in the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6.
