Hi Guys & Gals...!
Thought it was time to get away from the Eagle F1 'Run-Flats' so I picked-out the Eagle F1 GS-D3's; I liked the specs and tread design. Unfortunately, it turns out that Goodyear has stopped production of these tires...my luck. So, I went with the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Tires. These tires are a new addition to the Michelin lineup of performance tires and was wondering if anyone else has purchased these tires; if so, what do you think? Here are the tire specs!
