riko666 Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 if it's made in Thailand, they're going to be fake...so they're technically not Goodyears...probably Goodmonths, indicating the amount of time they'll last before a catastrophic failure Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RobSR Posted November 20, 2007 Author Share Posted November 20, 2007 @ riko, im not totally sure about that mate! Someone i no phoned goodyear, and were informed that they do make the ones prodcued in thailand and that they are not fake, they are just a different compound and made totally different to suit the roads out there, which is why the dont work here in england ThanksRob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 eep - I therefore stand thoroughly corrected, and slightly pwnt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 The ones from Germany are the ones to have. However all the other ones are not fakes, they are just made using cheaper rubber, which means that they are not as good. Although you should notice if they are the different ones as they have a slightly different tread pattern.They have also stopped making Eagle F1s now finished on Monday. They are now making the Eagle F1 Asimetric, which is still a very good tyre but dosent have the same 'aggressive' tread pattern. Should still be able to get them for the next year or so though as they made so many. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rob_bower Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 phew mine are german!!! I dont think there can be that much between the eagles and the T1-R's when i was looking at tyres i polled it on about five or six forums and there was only about 2 votes in it!! i think its all down to personal pref!!
