The test categories are dry and wet handling, braking, aquaplane resistance, noise, comfort, wear, and subjective ratings.

Wet:
It is interesting to note the Goodyears are not the best dry handling tire but right up there with the best. Their wet handling tops everyone else significantly though. The new Goodyear tire offers the best combination of wet and dry handling performance. For those who want a high performance tire but are in an area where it rains often, this tire may be a savior for you.
This does not come without its downsides. The Goodyears are loud and not as comfortable as competitors:
Something else that is very important to note. The Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport is the lightest tire of the group:
Despite the downsides the Goodyear Eagle F1 wins this shootout. This bodes very well for the higher performance R and RS variants. Porsche afterall recently switched the 991.2 GT2 RS tire recommendation to the F1 RS.
