I was looking at the Goodyear F1 GS-D3 but they didnt have them available..

They guy showed me the F1 GS (Without the "D3"...)
F1 GS = 300 Treadwear, A Traction, A Temperature, and ZR Speed Rating
F1 GS-D3 = 280 Treadwear, A Traction, A Temperature, and ZR Speed Rating

GS-D3 = $266
GS = $307

I figured I'd give them a try, since the treadwear rating is a littler higher, but I was wondering if anyone is using these and what experience have you had with them? I currently use BFG DRs so was wondering if they are going to hook well or not. I dont think they are going to hook as well but shoul be good for the street right? I am getting a built 12 Bolt and slicks soon so I could use them at the track and swap these on for daily driving, but I still want it to hook well..

BTW they are 275/40/17s going on '01-'02 SS rims on the Z28 in sig...

thanks guys

 

I'm sorry

 

Looking at the Goodyear website, it appears they may have relabeled the "F1 GS-D3" as the "F1".

I just got them all on the car...I'm going to go wash the car and try them out, I'll post results afterwards..

 

You just bought the sucky tires that came from the factory on 17" wheels.

 

Yeah, they're the OEM tires. I never had issues with them, I actually thought they were pretty good. But when it came time to replace them, they were just too expensive. I went with BFGs for half the price, and I think they are a much better tire.

 

i dont thik they are too bad for an all-season tire lol....no problems yet. Yeah the BFG were better as far as traction goes...but I didnt get very many miles out of the BFGs, ether...

If I had it to do over again...I would have just gotten a cheaper tire to run on a daily basis and got another pair of BFG DRs and two extra rims for the track...

We'll see after 25K miles if they still have any tread
