mtnrat Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Just had a set of Goodyear F1 GS-D3 put on the SC400 :).
Pete Zaria Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Congrats - had a chance to see how they handle in the rain yet? :-p Peace, Pete Zaria.
UCF3 Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 wow from the tread pattern i'd say they're really good in Rain. the noise on the other hand
grnsc40095 Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 mtnrat, I hope you saw/know this little secret code on the tire? http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=4826897
SCdriver Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I have put about 10,000mi on my Goodyear Eagle F1 GS D3 tires and they are great in the rain and excellent in dry conditions as well. As for noise, they are as quiet or more so than the OEM tires with much more performance. When compared to the all season Bridgestone RE960 AS tires on my lexus LS 430, the Bridgestones are about as good in the wet and dry and even more quiet but are softer and don't quite connect you to the road as much as the Goodyears. The Goodyears are a bit sportier; firmer, with quicker turn in while the Bridgestones are more of a performance luxury ride. I like the Goodyears for the coupe and the Bridgestones ofor the sedan.
mtnrat Posted July 25, 2008 Author Posted July 25, 2008 I checked the date and they were made the 18th week of 2007. So ok there. As for noise they are much quieter than the all seasons that they replaced. Taking them on a bit of a road trip tomorrow and will get a feel for them then.
Lethal_Threat Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 I have a set of Toyo Proxies T1R's on my SC4 and they are amazingly sticky, no interior noise from them at all, no vibration, and AWESOME hydroplaning protection!

Wow never noticed they had a code showing the production date, mine were produced the 11th week of 2008. Gotta love working at a dealership and having the ability to order tires directly from the manufacturer.
