Opinions on the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tires?
Looking for a summer tire (have winter ones - live in Syracuse), good tread life, handles well in wet weather. Tirerack suggested this guy, the Avon Tyres Tech M500 and the Bridgestones RE750.

I will not buy again...
Since I put these on, my car pulls to the right. I have had 3 different people do alignments and the last one is VERY good at alignments but still pulls. I did some searching and a few others had the same problem after putting this tire on. It handles great, wet&dry but mine have a pull in them and don't drive straigt. I wil be going to PS2's next.

"If you don't mind the noise" is an UNDERSTATEMENT - I couldn't stand it!!! These are the loudest..
tires I've ever experienced. I just got rid of them because of the noise.
I would agree, they perform great in wet and dry but the noise is simply not worth it.
FWIW, my SO3s performed just as well in every respect except for the wallet.
I tried to save some $$$ by getting the KDW2s and in the end, they ended up costing more since I'm getting rid of them long before they wore out.
The best money you can spend on your car IMO is on good tires.
Went with PS2s this time just to try something different.

I guess what I'm saying is, you can get a high performance tire that performs as well if not........
better than the KDW2s AND won't make the noise the KDWs do.
All it takes is about $200 more.
I'm all about performance, but, when I can get something that performs great and doesn't require ear plugs I'm going with that!
