lol ive got p6000s on the front of mine at the moment and they are bloody cack mate. Tramline like buggery.

Just ordered 4 new Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3s,.. shud get um in a couple days from mytyres.co.uk

Cant wait !

The goodyears are bloody good, you might also wanna look at bridgestone potenzas are also good... but most with willys go for the goodyears.

I take it your talking 195/50/15s??? If youre going for 185/55/15s then try the Michelin Pilot Exalto 2s are also good.

I did a lot of reading into this just the other day cuz I was buying, so can recommend the goodyears.

Ill post some links in a min...

Nice choice with the GSD3s, you can only get them in the 195/50 fitment though cant you?

Im running GSD2s in 185/55/15s (as thats all you can get the 185s in) - superb tyre. Great grip in the dry, stunning grip in the wet. Even tonight with the salt and the slime, they encourange confidence and enable you to push on!

Go for them I reckon - well worth the money!

Are pretty expensive in 185s (£60.80 from http://www.mytyres.co.ukwww.mytyres.co.uk) but can get the 195s for £34.90, which is a proper bargain!!

Ive got the GSD3s and ive found the wet grip to be superb...however ive gotta say that traction on them isnt great really

I fitted four 185/55/15 Michelin PE2s to my Williams last year - best tyres Ive known.

Still a fan of Yokohama A539s .. them or Toyo Proxies TR-S1.. (i think)

I know a 1.4RT isnt fast, but these two tyres have been superb in both wet and dry, and they arent expensive either
