Goodyear 275/40 R18 99Y Runflat Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 * MOE 2024

The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 275/40 R18 99Y ROF MOE * is a high-performance summer run-flat tyre developed for premium passenger vehicles with Mercedes-Benz MOExtended homologation. Its 275 mm width, 40-series profile and 18-inch construction provide a broad contact area designed for responsive steering, controlled cornering and stable high-speed driving. The 99Y specification supports loads of up to 775 kg per tyre and speeds up to 300 km/h.

Performance and Handling

The Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 uses Goodyear's Grip Booster compound and Active Braking Technology to increase road contact during braking and support grip on both dry and wet surfaces. The reinforced construction is designed to improve steering precision, cornering behaviour and overall control, making this specification suitable for drivers who expect responsive handling from a premium summer tyre.

Dry and Wet Road Performance

The tread and compound combination is designed to provide consistent grip in warm-weather conditions. Goodyear states that the Active Braking Technology increases the tyre's contact area during braking, while the Grip Booster compound uses specialised resins to enhance grip. For the 275/40 R18 99Y specification, the European tyre label lists wet grip class B and rolling resistance class C.

Run-On-Flat Technology

This version uses Goodyear RunOnFlat technology, allowing continued mobility after a loss of air pressure. Goodyear states that the tyre can continue for up to 80 km at a maximum speed of 80 km/h after a puncture, subject to the vehicle manufacturer's requirements and the applicable operating conditions. This can provide additional mobility when an immediate tyre change is not possible.

Mercedes-Benz MOE Homologation

The MOE marking identifies the tyre as a Mercedes-Benz MOExtended specification. The star marking identifies the manufacturer-specific homologation associated with the application. Matching these markings is important when replacing original-equipment tyres because different versions of the same Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 size can have different construction and tuning.

Construction and Durability

Goodyear's Reinforced Construction technology uses a reinforced lightweight carcass designed to support handling, cornering performance and tread durability. The tyre also incorporates rim protection around the lower sidewall area, helping reduce the risk of damage to the wheel and tyre from contact with kerbs during everyday driving.

Who Should Choose This Tyre?

This Goodyear specification is suited to drivers whose vehicle requires a 275/40 R18 99Y summer run-flat tyre with Mercedes-Benz MOE homologation and star marking. It combines high-speed capability, wet and dry road grip, steering response and continued mobility after pressure loss. Vehicle-approved size, axle position and homologation should always be checked before installation. Dwbtyres provides this specification for customers looking to buy car tyres in UAE.
