Default Goodyear Gsc..

I did a seach on the forum and I can't find any feed back on them. How are they? Tread life?

TIA

They are a 10+ year old design. They were pretty good in their time, but there are a lot of newer-technology tires out there. I got great life out of my set (36,000) and replaced them with Yokohama AVS Sports. They're much quieter and ride better. We'll see about the wear.

Overpriced. Get a set of Kuhmo Ectsa's, less money just as good. There was a tire poll going on either here or in C4 general discussion.... ah here it is:

They aren't manufactured anymore. Check out the newer models like the F1 or the GS-D3. The GSCs were not known for great traction, the newer tires are much better.
