Default Goodyear F1 GS-D3 Defect

:!: 275/40ZR17 Goodyear F1 GS-D3. Be sure you inspect these tires before you pay for them. If you order them be sure you explain you will not take them if the side walls are scuffed. With Discount tire I went through three sets delivered from Goodyear's warehouse trying to find a set that was not "Badly" Curb scuffed. They Litarelly look like they have 20,000 miles of curb damage. Rear tires looked good as new. Discount tire was great about trying to fix Goodyears problem. Goodyear finally admitted in an E.mail that it is a process for tread trimming??? Whatever that is I do not think it is the problem. More like quality control. But I would not have agreed to keep them if it was not for the great ride they gave to my "completely stock" 1994ZR. Quiet and smooth but you can tell you are giveing up sharp cornering because of the soft rubber. At least it feels like soft rubber. It almost feels like the car over steers. For a smooth and comfortable sticking to the asphalt ride they are great. Competition you can forget it........and you have to live with people wondering how a person could hit that many curbs. Discusted with Goodyear for "makeing" me drive junk looking tires, and not agreeing to a problem they have. High dollar tires looking like junkyard used.......Is the ride worth it...........Yea, I guessssss.
