New Goodyear F1's !
 

Just got my shipment from TireRack. 4 new Goodyear F1 tires just waiting to be put on. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Goodyear&tireModel=Eagle+F1+GS-D3 http://www.coma.ms/Community//emoticons/emotion-2.gifhttp://www.coma.ms/Community//emoticons/emotion-2.gif

Also got the Conti-Kit from them. It is a small compressor and tire sealant kit so I can ditch the run-flats soon. Check it out here. http://www.tirerack.com/accessories/conticomfortkit/index.jsp

And then it will be time to paint my calipers... http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/g2/caliper_paint.jsp ......lol

Thanks Alex and TireRack for a great buying experience, as usual :thumbsup:

I just bought a set of F1s for my MCoupe and use Yokohamas on my MCS.
Let us know how you like them on the Cooper.

I've got 12K on my GS-D3's so far, and I love 'em:thumbsup: After a few hundred miles, let us know your impressions. I'd be especially interested to hear if your level of confidence in the rain is as high as mine.:grin:

My F1s came yesterday too! Too bad I can't put em on till next spring:impatient

What dimension and speed rating Goodyear F1s are y'all runnin?

Didn't you mean to say "what rain"? :wink: :thumbsup:

I just got the 215/40YR17 83Y.

205 50 y

215/45/17 on 7.5 inch wheels. Stock suspension. Quiet, comfortable & no rubbing.:thumbsup:

Ya' gotta point there.:wink:

I've been using the 205/50R16's this summer. 7 track days and a handfull of autocrosses, along with daily driving. My take is they're a good tire for the money. The Bridgestone Pole Position is a better tire, but more expensive.

The first track day, my Goodyears lost a lot of tread on the outside of every tread block. But things have stabilized since then. Now, I'm just dealing with the fact that I have no tread left on the outside shoulder of the tires. I'm running without camber plates...

Next year, camber plates and a dedicated set of track wheels / tires.
