OK, #3035 is now back on Gatorbacks for the first time since who knows when. And what a deal, half the performance of my old T/A KDWs at twice the price! :)

Very nice touch. Do they ride well?

Only driven on them for a couple of miles to get home from the shop but so far I'm pretty unimpressed. Hoping that might improve once I get more miles and wear on them. This is the first set of these vintage of tires I've ever owned so maybe they might "break-in" a bit with age. ?

Back in the day my patrol car had gbacks.......they sucked then.....I doubt yours will “break in” much. Be careful on wet pavement....especially in curves.

I'm not worried about wet roads as the car rarely, if ever, sees them anymore and i drive it like a granny these days anyway. I just noticed on the invoice that they aired them up to 35psi (like they are required to for all tires - stupid). I'm going to bleed them down some and see if that improves the ride.
