They haven't, Goodyear have just replaced them - it's called evolution.
but they replaced them with lesser quality tyres though?

There's new regs coming in next year about tyre noise. This is why the Asymmetrics have replace the GSD3s because despite being an inferior tyre they are a lot quieter.
What I would really like to try is the Toyo R888's - but they are not cheap![]()
Personally I would go for the Hankook RS2's. Although the wear rate is the same as GSD3's thats where the similarities end. Its a much stronger tyre in wet & dry and has a much stronger sidewall.
Failing that the Yokohama AD07 is also a great tyre but is a bit on the expensive side but worth every penny.
really? :s

£20 difference there, £15 at elitetyres and that has been the trend ive noticed for the last year or so? :s
What is the Goodyear Eagle NCT5 like, it's the only eagle I seem able to find for 195/55R15. I want to try something different when these Pirellis wear out, which is taking forever.

I couldnt get the gsd's in 18" this time round so have the asymmetrics on the front now and gsd's still on the rear
and to be honest they seem better, no loss in grip and they are more quiet for sure
im going to need some new tyres soon for the type R, im thinking of going for Eagle F1 Reinforced GSD3s for £82 a corner but hear good things about the Bridgestone RE050 (Honda) but there £106 a corner. both 215/45/17
hmm what to go for.
