I'm currently needing to replace my third pair of Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics and have been very happy with them in both dry and extremely wet conditions. What I do is when the front pair get down to 2.5mm I transfer the rears to the front and buy a new pair for the rear axle. This is what I'm advised is best practice on FWD cars.
When I bought my first GY F1 Asymm pair they went on the rear and the GY F1 Directional pair moved to the front axle. This wasn't a good combination and I would find myself randomly subjected to twitches and snatching with the ESP interfering - Usually on fast sweeping bends (on B-roads!). After my initial scares and attempts to reproduce the same in order to understand what was going on and what I needed to do about it I adopted an aggressive 'fook it!' attitude, kept the throttle constant and drove through the problem. I think this problem may have arisen out of the asymmetric+directional mix but helpful as Goodyear Technical tried to be they had never tested their two products together on the same car.
So, I am now thinking of having a pair of Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta, which are asymmetric, and then my next change will result in the Vredy's all round. I used to use Vredestein when I raced bicycles and have always highly rated their rubber, though 18mm slicks with 150psi is a different ball game.
I know that winrya has the Vredy+GY Asymm mix at the moment without issues but if I do buy a pair of Vredy's it'll be the mix I use on my trackday in Nurdleburgering in April and I want to feel safe.
Has anyone got any experience or views about this combination, please?
