How the Excellence evaluated
Customer reviews are not part of PTI – PTI is based on measurements from independent tests; for tyres with few tests it also partly considers the brand's class.
Technical information
Focus: Standard
The largest and best-selling category, and Goodyear EXCELLENCE belongs to it. No single property is pushed here at the expense of the others — comfort, grip, noise and tread life keep a sensible balance. For most drivers it is the safest bet: the tyre behaves predictably in the dry and in the wet and covers a decent number of kilometres.

What owners say
BMW 530 Touring (F11) - I have had to change 6 tyres due to bulging of the sidewall during the past 20,000 miles. I can't comment on wear because they don't last long enough! The garage tells me it is because of run flats and pot holes ... perhaps he is correct, but I am suspicious because my previous 530 Touring (E61) had the same spec tyre, different brand, and I never experienced any tyre bulging. Just good old wear. Problem is, I can't recall the tyre brand of my E61? Dunlop I think? I will ask advice and change the brand because, guess what ... I've just noticed a tyre with bulges.
I had these tires 235/50R17 96V Excellence FP fitted on my FORD G6E in April 2018 and car has done 63,000km and only now it is showing signs of wear and hairline cracks. I will buy these tires again if these were available.
stupid tyre in wet road cant using~slip in wet road~
Average economy tyre. Dry grip is good, but you will reach its limit when you push it hard enough. Wet grip is another story. While it is capable of driving normally in the rain, the tyre would easily aquaplaning if you hit heavy puddle of water. Road feedback is average as it is an economy tyre. Handling is slightly above average as in my experience it provides enough agility for slightly above normal driving. Wear is good as I have used this tyre for 4 years with over 45000 km with the tread is still not hitting the limit thickness yet. Just recently 1 sidewalls have torn and I decided to change all 4 sides. Comfort in the other hand is quite good. It provides light steering feel and sound level is good enough. In terms of value, I would say that this is among the best value for money for economy tyre. Goodyear has released new tyre model to replace this model which is assurance triplemax and assurance triplemax 2 for malaysian market.
These came fitted on the FD2 when I bought it and were new tyres.
Dry Grip - I've had not complaints and generally push the car hard on highways averaging 150-200 km/h. Overall good tyres in the dry.
Wet Grip - Able to take corners on wet roads post heavy downfall around 80 km/h but I dare not go any faster. They're fine on straight roads going 100-120 km/h and wouldn't skid tho wet braking was not very good. I have another car fitted with the Goodyear ATM2 and they have better wet braking
NVH - These aren't comfortable tires, rather hard compound but it gives you good road feedback and you can corner with confidence on these. That being said my car is low and generally cornering has never been an issue.
I will not recommend these tires if you are looking for comfort or quiet.
I will req these tires for anyone on a budget and isn't fussed with tires but just want something good and lasts long. These are definitely cheap and bang for a buck tires for people who just want a pair of tires to get them to point A to B.
