Default Anyone else have Eagle Gt's?

If you have been following my posts, you have read about my unfortunate experience with the Eagle GT tires that I inherited when I bought by SC...tires only have 3400 miles since new, and after rebalancing, new wheels, replacing 1 tire (L/F) now I have a vibration at 56 coming from the rear...DT will work with me on replacements, but was told today that Goodyear will not buy them back...so I am looking at an expensive replacement. Hate to replace new tires @ 3400 mi, but they just do not feel correct after driving cars with run-flats, and my wife's new 02 with BFG's...anyone else had a similar experience? Bob

Not sure if this is a new issue Bob, or a recurring. I think I chimed in on your other post, but i'm very happy with the yoko s. drives

I have yoko parada spec-x on my FX35 and I have had them for the past five years.

Great tires, good value, low noise and solid manufacturing.

I believe DT has these in OEM sizes for $600 installed out-the-door. www.tires.com

Double check me on the price, it's been a while.

My wobble on my Yokos was fixed after third re-balance, but if the car sits for more than 3 days it comes back but after car is driving for about five miles it subsides. My vibration (on this car) comes at 45-50mph. My last vibration issues on my 02 SC and my FX's came at the traditional 55-65mph. My only problem is the gym, Pei Wei, Starbucks, gas station and the mall are less than 3 miles away! Can't get the car's tires warmed up enough to let them stretch!

Check out the Yokos
