Default Any experience with Goodyear F1 GS-D3 on S4?

I've had the Re040's and Dunlop SP9000's. I wouldn't get either again. I was planning on getting S03's, but I saw good reviews of the Goodyears on the Tirerack site and on AW search.

Default Yes, they're awesome. I haven't had them at the track yet, but...

they're fantastic wet or dry. Nice and quiet (for a max performance tire) too. Lighter than S03s...

Default Those tires have been sold out for months

At least in 235/45 17s (A6 Sport Package wheels). One month ago, Tire Rack had posted on their web site that they would be back in stock on July 29. I called Tire Rack last Saturday, and they could not estimate when they would be in (could be another month). Tire Rack said the tires were made in Europe, and because the tires have become so popular they are now hard to get. Maybe they're available in S4 size.

Default One of those reviews you found was probably mine ...

I love the tires .. Nothing to complain about.

Default for a performance tire, rather quiet (at least when new)

they're quieter than my old BFGoodrich G-Force KDWs, and I think a little quieter than Yoko AVS ES100s. I don't remember my P6000s well enough to comment about those.

Default Yes, they're great for the price.

Got mine for 150 ish (4) each with 60 dollar rebate.
