Thought I'd throw in an observation or two... I ran 2 sets of Conti ASPs before moving
to the Goodyear F1 GSD3s. Truthfully, I was rather happy with the Conti ASPs, except
that they only lasted about a year before I had to change them out. This got just a little
bit expensive. So, I did some research and settled on the GSD3 from Goodyear. These
too, have been good tires, and I'm getting about 2 years of driving before I have to swap
them for a new set.

However, the GSD3s, in my opinion, do not grip near as well as did the Conti ASP
tires. The GSD3s break loose in corners that the Contis had no trouble with and I
remember hearing the Contis coming "unglued" from the floor of my garage every
morning as I'd head out to work. They were just that sticky. On the plus side, the GSD3s
are fantastic in the rain, which we usually get a good bit of in Atlanta. Not saying that
the Contis were bad in the rain, just that the GSD3s are superior on wet surfaces.

Even with that said, if I could afford the expense, I'd probably run the Conti ASP tires
over the F1 GSD3s from Goodyear, or experiment with another brand.. But, economics
being what they are, I'll be putting my second set of GSD3s on next month. The rears
are nearly bald, but should be good until March.

Good luck in finding the right tire for your driving style and cost factors.
