They sold the F1A5 to to me at $190/piece and that was inclusive of GST

Ya I called them the other day and was quoted 192. But I still ended up at tyretrack cos they offer 185 and very close to where I live.

10 years ago i have read a few cases of sidewall cracks in goodyear tyres. My own efficient grip had cracks after slightly over 1 year and i had posted photos in this forum then. Since f1a3 and now f1a5 i have not read about goodyear sidewall cracks. I had also had used 2 sets of f1a3 already and were happy with them. Now not using this series cos trying runflats.

I had used 2 set of GY EfficientGrip performance  and 1 set of AY F1A3 on previous car.

My current set of tyre is F1A5. 

All don't see any cracking on the tyres.

Good to know - am on EG now and due to my very low usage (maybe 5000 a year or less) hope they won't crack too soon!

The sidewall is really thin and flexible.

There are no such Tyres...best of everything.

[ER-3682]

Since you want good Economy..go for Touring Tyres..don't go for UHP..Grip wise...most Touring Tyres..should be acceptable..except you drive like a Racing Driver.

Yeah - will run out of TP points before running out of grip. With the lousy road surfaces and constant road works, firm UHP tyres just made the ride a lot worse.

[WangZhizhong]

guys, what is UHP?

understand that fuel economy tires is not the best performance tires, but what are the fuel economy series?
