posted on mini2, but no feedback. hoping for better luck here.

seeking advice on previous owners of this tire for comparison to their new sets.

i currently have the gy, but am considering changing them for bridgestone re750 215/45/17.

i only have about 1k miles on the gy and they do feel heavy, but the ride doesn't seem that bad. going over the lane bumps is actually quite nice. since they are heavy, acceleration and braking seems much slower than it should.

any advice out there for owners who made the switch? please advise your new tires w/size and any positives or negatives compared with the gy rs-a.

much appreciated!
