I'll third that on the GS-D3's - quite happy with them on my shared
(and shagged) Ring-Golf, now on our second set of them.

First set lasted** about 2400 TRACK miles, compare that to our set of
Toyo T1-S tires which started to have tread failure*** at around 800
track miles.

The GS-D3's also have quite impressive rain performance as well.

I'll be ordering a set for the UrS4 when the current PZero Rosso's wear out.

YMMV, blah blah blah :-P

Cheers,
Keith

** "lasted" means that we took them off the car when they got down to
the wear bars, still a couple mm of visible tread left even.

*** failure means large chunks fo the tread starting to separate, not
just from the surface but the seperation crevaces (sp!) going quite
deep.
