Re: Eagle F1 GS D3's
IMO yes. Goodyear's start off as an ok tire , then get hard as hell fast. The Mich's ride much better , traction is superior (except wet, the D3's are hard to beat) only downside to the Mich's are price. But yea get's what ya pay for.

By the time mine were 3 year old, they began to noticeably slip. I thought it was the mods...well maybe some of it was. But! Over the next couple years, they got noticeably worse until this spring (going into the 6th season) they were like I was on wet pavement all the time.

Huh, that's good to hear. Guess I'll stick with what I have when the time comes again.

Re: Eagle F1 GS D3's
IMO No not for regular street tires. The D3s are great. For the racing types the Nittos seem to be the WTG. GC
