Goodyear GSD3s or Dunlop SP Sport Maxxs?

[Stedman]

I need some new rear tyres and these are near enough exactly the same price. Thing is, I have a set of GSDs on the front and they're pretty good but i'm keen to try the dunlops. Views and opinions?

Thanks

2-3 year old design versus one from the mid-90s for the same manufacturer. I suspect the Dunlop will be much, much better.

I tried both these on my 156 and I really couldn't pick between the two. Dunlops were marginally quieter, GSD3 marginally better in the rain, but we're really talking minute differences. Both terrible in the snow.

I'd be tempted to keep it in the family and get matching tyres all around. In fact that's exactly what I'd do.

Exactly my thoughts. Hoping for an unsnowy winter with the GSDs

Thanks guys.

FWIW GSD3s are no longer made. I have also read reports of alledged grey imports.
