Default Goodyear GS D3 Availability

Has anyone been able to find a supplier that has GS-D3's in stock?..I am talking a full set, not just fronts or rears.

My Goodyear dealer was able to find them. Took a couple days for them to get them though.

I was wondering the same thing. TireRack kept pushing back the expected stock date, but don't even list it an longer.

Around here, the local dealers are several hundred dollars higher. I tried to get the guy down to within $200 of TR and still couldn't get them to take the offer.

Exit 98?!!! If my Shore house day memory serves me correctly...thats Belmar.

I found them at "Just Tires" in Culver City CA. I just had them installed on Monday.

I'm moving back to NJ, this Saturday, and I tried to find them there, for when I returned. I had a hell of a time, so I decided to buy them here, before I leave. I'm not sure if they have "Just Tires" back in NJ, I have been out here for almost six years and I don't recall. You can order them online thru "Just Tires" FYI

I paid $300 each for the backs, 275/40/18, didn't need fronts...yet. They have both. I believe mounting and balancing is $18 each, so $318 each plus tax for the rears, mounted and balanced. Not bad!

Hopefully you guys don't run into an issue I ran into with my camaro. I bought 4 275/35/18's a couple of years ago, and one curbed a couple months after I got them on. It took them 11 MONTHS to send me a replacement. I had to drive around on my stock 16" salad shooters, in front, and my new C5's in back. Not to mention I had to buy 2 new tires for my 16's as they were shot.
I was pretty pissed off about that situation.
