I quite prefer my Goodyear Eagle F1 GS D3's. I've never had a tire that can hold corners like them. That includes in the rain too! Nothing else feels safer.
one, when i bought my rims, they were slightly used, and the rears were potenzas, low profile look, but i hated them, so obviosuely thats about personal preference.
as for the goodyear eagles, i have those on right now, and i felt safer when i had the wheels that my brother now has out in college...
Yokohama Avid T4/H4/D4... i dont remember anymore, lol, but they were AWESOME in the rain (better than the eagles!) so, i will be happy when we see him again in november, i will get my offset rims back, he will get his old rims back (wrapped in some NEW snowies) and i will sadly put on my old stock rims with snowies on them...
Fact: Potenza's are a great tire (at least the expensive ones ). I can attest to that.
My opinion: Goodyear's suck
Fact: Goodyear Potenza's do not exist.
Fact: Potenza's are made by Bridgestone.
I have the Kumho ECSTA ASX. Cheaper than the MX..i'm sure they dont preform quite as well but they're a lot cheaper. I paid $98/ea for mine. I love 'em.
