2004 Coupe Tires

My buddy is ready to replace his tires on his 2004 Corvette Coupe.
He wants to go with the regular tires. No run flats.
His 2 choices either...

Good Year GS-D3 or Michelin Pilots

Which one would you pick and why???

non-run flats

I got the Michelins and I love them.

I just wanted the reputation of the Michelins and have had some bad experiences with the Goodyears on other vehicles.

GS D3's

Best tire I have used so far. They are excellent in rain.

Plus they have a nice little overhang to protect your wheels from rash.

The GS D3's have that overhang also.

The Goodyear GSD3s are rated #1 for good reason - they are outstanding, dry OR wet - highly recommended! The icing on the cake is that they are made by a US company.
