Eagle F1 Directional 5 - What Do You Think?

[GTS R33]

Previously had Eagle F1 GS-D3 and got 4 years out of them. Just replaced today with the Eagle F1 Directional 5 as I couldn't pass up $694 for the 4 tyres, fitted, balanced, alignment and tyre protect plan.

1st thing I noticed was how quiet they are and smooth ride.

Whats are peoples thoughts on comparisons as I didnt want to spend the $$$ on Potenza's

They sound alright, but only a 255 as the widest

I have had them on my V36 for 2 years now. I think they are great. Amazing performance for the price. Good in the dry and in the wet. I actually found them a little noisy, but not bad enough to rate them poorly.

They only go to 255 because this is goodyears 2nd best tyre. The Asymetric is the better tyre and has more sizes.
