This is very good to know, as I had not considered the Goodrich brand
before.

I do know, however, that the Michelin is about USD $110 per tire, and
the Pirelli about $120 per tire. I am currently using the Toyo tire,
which is a Japanese tire that I have had good luck with in the past--
about $80/tire. Money is not the critical factor, however.

Thanks very much for the info.
