Hey all,

2 different body shops have determined that there's not enough damage to total my SRT. So repairs have begun with 80% of the parts arriving next week. Current repair estimate is 12K.

Both rear tires need to be replaced. I've spent hours researching all of the great tire conversations on this board and looked at the reviews on Tire rack and discount tires direct. I've narrowed it down to 3 choices...sort of. The new Goodyear F1 all season doesn't seem to be available until late February and none of us, me, body shop, insurance co. want to wait that long, so that choice is out. So my two candidates are; Goodyears F1 GS-D3 or Continentals Conti Sport 3. I don't have any snow or ice considerations and don't see much rain but do need to be able to drive in it. I also would like to try autocrossing once or twice this year. (stock car, no mods planned at the moment) The front still has the stock Conti Touring Contact tires on with good tread life left. Would like to replace all 4 but can't afford it at the moment. The insurance company is paying for one of the rears only. Hoping some of you can encourage me one way or the other.

Thanks a lot
