Tyre Question: 195/45 17 Goodyear Eagle F1

[VWDaz86]

Hi all.

The rear tyres on my swift sport have reached the end of their life and so the hunt begins for replacements.
when I bought the car it had toyo proxes 4 on the front and eagle f1's on the back
I found the toyos poor in the wet and went for eagle f1 replacements in January this year.
they changed the way the car drove in the wet and I'm a fan of them.

Problem is, I cant find anywhere that sells the goodyears any more?

Goodyear themselves still list the F1 Asymmetric 2 on their website but then adds "In your size this tire is called the Eagle F1 Gs-D3"

I've tried lots of local dealers, overpriced national chains and internet retailers, all saying they cant get them.

So my question is, does anybody have any inside knowledge on if these are still being made?

or has anyone got experience on the other tyres i can get in my size

My other options are (ruling out the toyo proxes 4)

Falken Ziex ZE-914 Ecorun
Yokohama S.Drive
