[s-cars] LAC Goodyear GSD3

[Harold McComas]

Larry , I wasn't happy either with  the Falken's Fk451's. A screw near the 
sidewall made me get a new set of tires. They were pretty close to the 
wearbars anyways. Just because they were on sale I got a set of Bridgestone 
Potenzas RE750's, definately grippier, treadwear of 340, IIRC. Been happy 
with them. Running stock pressure (36 psi).
