Pros: Durable, haven't had a flat yet, good winter handling
Cons: Not for the performance oriented

I've now had my 1999 Volkswagen Golf for a little over a year, and have been running Goodyear Eagle LSs on it the whole time. This tire has proven to be reliable, fairly durable, and is one of the less expensive tires available in the size I now have...

My experience with Goodyear tires has been personal and professional.

Pros: Excellent traction in dry/wet terrain. Great response and good comfort.
Cons: Tread problems & doesn't last enough.

Volkswagen puts Goodyear tires on most of its cars sold in the United States. However good that may seem, the model titled Eagle LS does not provide adequate performance for sporty vehicles like my car, a 1999 Jetta GLS.

Cons: Bad wet grip, prone to road hazard damage.

The Goodyear Eagle LS (p205/r16) came from the factory on my 2002 PT Cruiser (Touring edition). I didn't have a choice of tire manufacturers, as the automakers buy trainloads of mediocre tires from big makers like Goodyear.

Happily I did have...

Our 2002 Impala came with Goodyear Eagle GA tires that showed wear after 27,000 miles (forgot to rotate apparently). We replaced the two front tires with a Goodyear Eagle LS P225/60R-16 that the Goodyear website suggested had a better rating than the ...

Pros: Dry traction, snow traction
Cons: Lack of wet traction, durability. Also quite noisy

These tires are decent on dry pavement. You have to work to get them to squeal or break loose. I also the thought the car did well in the snow although I don't know how much of that can be attributed to the traction control and anti-lock brakes....

Pros: They handle very well.
Cons: did not last, too pricey, not top of the line

Cons: Poor ride, traction and wear

Pros: Original equipment on Park Avenue

All four Goodyear Eagle LS tires that were OE on my Buick Park Ave. developed tread separations. Three were open, gaping separations. It is likely that the poor performance of the vehicle was due to the defective tires. I expect that if one tire had...
