Goodyear 245/40 R19 98Y RunFlat Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 MOE * 2024

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 245/40 R19 98Y RunFlat MOE is a high-performance summer tyre designed for powerful road cars requiring precise handling and dependable grip. This 245 mm-wide, 40-series configuration combines an XL 98 load index with a Y speed rating for loads up to 750 kg per tyre and speeds up to 300 km/h. The RunFlat construction adds mobility after pressure loss, while the MOE and star markings identify a Mercedes-Benz original-equipment specification.

About Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 245/40 R19 98Y RunFlat MOE

The Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 is built around performance-oriented road handling, braking and grip. Goodyear's ActiveBraking technology is designed to increase tyre contact with the road during braking, while Grip Booster technology is intended to improve adhesion. The exact 245/40 R19 98Y XL MOE configuration is a Mercedes-Benz MOExtended specification with the star marking, making the complete sidewall designation important when replacing an OE-fitted tyre. The supplied production year for this listing is 2024.

Asymmetric tread and contact footprint

The Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 uses an asymmetric performance tread design intended for paved-road driving. The 245 mm section width provides a broad contact footprint, while the 40-series sidewall offers a relatively low-profile structure that supports directional stability and steering response. This setup is better suited to road performance than to loose surfaces or off-road driving, and the low profile may transmit more sharp road impacts than a taller touring tyre.

Dry-road handling and steering response

On dry roads, the Goodyear is designed to deliver responsive handling and stable cornering. The wide contact area and reinforced XL construction help maintain road contact under acceleration, braking and directional changes. The 40-series profile gives this configuration a more performance-focused character without being as extreme as an ultra-low-profile 30- or 35-series tyre, making it suitable for drivers who want a balance between steering precision and everyday road usability.

Wet grip and braking confidence

Wet-road performance is another important part of the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 package. Goodyear's Grip Booster compound is intended to improve adhesion, while ActiveBraking is designed to increase contact with the road during braking. The exact specification carries a UTQG traction rating of AA and a temperature rating of A. Its Y speed classification corresponds to a maximum rated speed of 300 km/h, subject to legal limits, vehicle requirements and appropriate operating conditions.

RunFlat construction and OE specification

The RunFlat construction distinguishes this Goodyear version from a conventional Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3. The MOExtended designation is intended to allow continued mobility following a loss of inflation pressure, reducing the need for an immediate roadside tyre change. The Mercedes-Benz star marking also means buyers should not select this tyre solely from its dimensions. Matching the complete OE marking is important where the vehicle manufacturer specifies it.

Who should consider this tyre?

This Goodyear configuration is suited to compatible Mercedes-Benz passenger cars and drivers who prioritise responsive steering, stable cornering, wet and dry grip and the practicality of run-flat mobility. It is less appropriate for buyers seeking a soft, comfort-first touring tyre or an off-road tyre. For customers using Dwbtyres to buy car tyres in UAE, checking the vehicle placard and existing sidewall markings before ordering is especially important with this MOE star-marked specification.
