But much better value than Michelin IMO , they're actually a wider tyre than some brands too if you run a tape over them size for size.....Kumho etc
Go & watch ‘Tyre Reviews’(YT). Certainly not ‘better value’ than Michelin,Goodyear Eagle asymmetric 6 is another their brilliant tyre.Goodyear are now manufacturing some brilliant tyres.Continental also.Three of the best tyres around.

Michelin are really expensive over here , I take a lot of these Tyre reviews as just a guide, and would rather trust real world experience but I do agree the Goodyear eagles are a great Tyre, as for Continental not sure about car tyres but I've just taken a set of super single steer tyres that came on a MAN 640 brand new 77k worn out , Goodyear and Bridgestone 120k .....big difference and my own real world experience
