Default GoodYear All Season F-1 Tires

Anybody out there running these? Looking for feedback prior to purchasing. Looking to purchase tires in following sizes - (2) 245-40-18 and (2) 275-40-18. If anyone has suggestions, let me know. Also considering Michelin, Yokohama, Nitto, and any others you might suggest.
Thanks for the replies/input/feedback. And of course if you know of any vendors providing offers I shouldn't refuse, let me know.

Yes and very pleased. Good in 2 inches of snow. Did autocross several times with these tires. A little tricky but taught me a lot about throttle control.

BTW if you live in southern California with no snow why consider all-season tires?

I love them. Im at about 8000 miles with them and no problems so far. Seemed to have held off feathering also. Really good wet traction, quiet ride (although my last set of tires were severely feathered so anything it quiet). I would recommend.

I had those 255/40/18 275/40/18 and loved them. I only got 14k miles out of them but I like to drive!!!!! ha! Well IMHO I just replaced the rears with Toyo T1r and think the F1 A/S were stickier. I heard of good things about the T1r but didnt really like them. I think I'm switching back to the F1 A/S next set

I have that exact setup on my enkeis and couldnt be happier. Little noisy though if you keep your radio off.

Have had good feedback as far as dry/wet/snow traction since they came out. However, as pizzato mentioned they can be a bit noisy. Have had some complaints of irregular wear later on in life if not rotated every 3K miles.

What I'm seeing is that at about 8-10k these tires get very noisy and start to cup. Davidv's experience notwithstanding, anybody with 10k on these tires having any problems?

Yokohama S Drive and Eagle F1 are both top notch and amazing tires.
