If you are looking for overall wet and dry tractions, the Bridestones are pretty good. If you are looking for performance wise, maybe not so much but *gasp* you may actually drive your vette in the rain once in a while.
Wait what? The Bridgestones are good if I will drive in the rain - I am looking for a good long lasting tire that will give me the handling (no more bouncing like a pingpong ball) and less noise but that are also cost effective.

Only thing I don't like is all of these tires say "not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures" Ummm half the year we are in near freezing temps. Does that mean my tires won't be sticky???

Most performance tires are like that. Don't worry about that. Unless you get a winter tire, no performance tire will stick well in freezing temperatures.

C5 Chick has the GS-D3's very good tire as well with a very cool tread. When Car and Driver did a performance test of all major brands, the GS-D3s came out on top I believe. Maybe its just my opinion but I'm not a big fan of Bridgestone tires. If I were you, I'd stick with either Goodyears, Michelin or BF Goodrich.
