I have the GTT and so far I love it. Can't say anything about wear yet as have not had it on long enough, but it rides GREAT, very smooth. I went with it because of the information and ratings I read on it plus by word of mouth, so to speak, from a few others on here.

I just installed a Goodyear Triple Tread last night. It is definitely an awesome tire. I don't think you can go wrong with either tire...I would just get the cheaper of the two.

Anyone worn out either one of these tires yet? Wondering how many miles someone could expect.

Well I ended up going with the Goodyear TT and put about 1200 miles on it over last weekend. I like it!...I like it ALOT!!!....about 800 miles of that was interstate, the rest was in the mountains in East Tn. and NC....It did great on the interstate but I kind of expected that. What I didn't expect was how well it did in the mountains!!!.... Cool

Late Post but my vote would be the HydroEdge. Over 5,000 miles this past summer and no issues. Ride single most times but have been two up with wife and no issues.

I keep the pressure at 40 - 41 psi. If the tire pressure gets low, you notice a little more wobble.

Enjoy,

Ray

I run the GTT. I bought it over the others simply because I like the tread design. I remember when Michelen was not even around yet. Good Year has always meant to me "QUALITY". Sometimes not top but always close to it.

Whatever one you choose, I'm sure you will love it. Smile Smile
