Has anyone used the Goodyear Eagle F1 All Season tires in the snow? Since we only get about 10 snow days a year, here in Indiana, i would hate to put winter tires on the car. I was wondering if these all season tires would work better than the stock run flats, though i am sure not as good as a winter tire.

Any thoughts?

Rubezahl, I too am leaning towards the Goodyear Eagle F1 All Seasons. I've heard a lot of good things about them.

I'm running Goodyear Eagle F1 AS as my daily driver tires. It's a good tire with adequate grip in the wet. I have only used them on a light dusting of snow and they performed fine. I have no complaints with these tires and they're OK for spirited drives with the understanding they're just AS tires.
