Who's Mitch?
Mitch was the guy who went up and announced his own prize... he had two single serving bottles in his pockets.

That's what I'm thinking - those are definitely out the window though. When the S2 is back on the road I'll have BF Goodrich GS-D3's on the front & Mickey Thompson E.T. Street Radials on the rear!!
GS-D3 is a goodyear tire.

I knew it sounded weird when I was saying BFGoodrich.

I have the GOODYEAR Eagle GS-D3s on my S. I bought them one size larger than the direct replacement.

I am absolutely amazed at how much quieter and 'stickier' they are. I love em.

I haven't personally owned a set, however a few close friends of mine have and they sware up & down by them.
Originally I had intended to run an Advan A048 up front, however if I am driving hard enough to break traction with the mickey thompsons out back - it'd be a good idea to keep something that always sticks in the front!

You obviously didn't replace S02s with them.
