Eagle GT Tires

Hi guys I've seen a couple of members with Goodyear Eagle GTs and I was wondering if they smell like burnt rubber after highway use. On my R56S they wreak a lot!!! I am not stressing the car at all and I am driving smoothly and not aggressively.

I just bought a set of Eagle GT's for BOO and I love them, She has 350 miles if that on her shoes, love'em...NO smells here at all...Maybe a bad set of tires, or other issues with them. Hope this helps....snowman

I would do some research and determine if a MCS could push Eagle Gt's beyond their limits

My gut feeling says yes
