Looking good! I replaced the OEM Goodyears with these and really enjoy the positive differences (better tracking, less road noise).

Your totally right, when you pull on the highway and floor it the car goes straight instead of all over the place. Much safer when driving.

Good looking tires, I've my set about 6 months and really like them, noticeably quieter.

Replaced my GY OEM tires after only 8,500 miles. The decision was Bridgestone or Michelin. I had Michelin's on my C5 and 05 C6 but thought I'd give Bridgestone a try on my 13 GS. Here are pix of the Bridgestones just before they were mounted on the car.
