Default Goodyear Tires(Recommendations)

Well, the Eagle RSA Emt's are horrible for ride comfort. My gf's father will be sending them back in hopes of getting full credit for all four tires. This means I get to order brand new tires but they have to be goodyears obviously since ill be getting 350 per tire. I am eyeing up the GSD3's since i have read so many good things. I want a tire that will handle well and get decent mileage. Any recomendations on goodyear tires? And should i just keep the 245's all of the way around or go bigger in the back.

I have been running the Asymmetrics is stock size. Been very happy with them, Traction is very good in the dry, they don't seem to aquaplane, and noise is very low.

The GS2s ride great and handle ok. The best I could get the lateral G to read with them was .96 and .99 but I think that was right before I spun out autox'ing them. They don't grip like the Nitto NT05s that I put on it thats for sure.

I got the Eagle gt which is an multi purpose tire. They wear great and weren't too bad price wise. I live in chicago and needed tires that could handle the winters also.

Ran gsd3's Probably more than any other, Great summer tire really bad winter tire. Fortunately it's garaged in the winter. Actually I still have gsd3's up front & MT/dr rear. Note that the GSD3's seem to run wider than any other of the same size for some reason.
