Would anyone know a source for two (2) Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tires, size 315/35-17?
I have 4 new ZR1 wheels, and the two front tires, however, it seems GY, is slow on their backorders.
Thanks

Did you try tire rack .com? That is the only good priced place that I can think of. I know GY is back ordered pretty bad right now. For the future I would suggest Nitto, we run Nittos on both our vettes and love them alot more than GY's

Thanks for the reply, yes, I have tried most of the website tire dealers, including Tire Rack, it seems that Goodyear has a nationwide back order going on these. I heard they are not supposed to be making them till mid summer. I already have 4 new wheels and the 2 front tires. I was just hoping I could find a "Local" dealer that had two on the shelf..
Again thanks.

LOL, you know Walt, this is the reason my brother and I switched to Nitto right off the bat because we had a hard time getting GY's and that was a year ago!! How about Discount tire, I am sure that they are all feeling the delay though! I will keep my eyes and ears open if I come across some!
Greg

that is going to be a tough one my friend, that is why I switched like smokin did! Just didn't want to have to worry about getting a flat and then needing one but having to wait forever to get a new one!

Thanks guys,
I have feelers out with friends and family to check their local tire dealers, if this fails I will most likely switch brands...

HERE IS THE ANSWER I GOT FROM GOODYEAR......:mad5:
GUESS IT'S TIME TO CHANGE GEARS......:banghead:

Thank you for contacting our web site. The Eagle F1GSD3 in size 315/35ZR17 is currently on back-order. There is no available stock and no scheduled production date at this time. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Walt,

Try Sullivan Tire in MA, they have numerous stores throughout the state and provide all of our State Vehicles with GY tires.
Can't hurt to try them.

Good luck.

If you insist on running Goodyear- try Max Finkelstein out of New York. They are big. Good luck-you might want to think about another brand-Goodyear has major problems. They do have a web site.

Thanks for all the input, and yes I am sticking to GY, I have fixed the problem, All is now OK..... I have tires coming and wheels already waiting to be installed.
Regards to all.
Walt
