We all agree that having a premium tire available for TTs is a good idea.
However, when trying to compare them to the quality of the tires currently available, remember the TT industry puts 2,000,0000 tires on the road every year. GY's production is a drop in the bucket compared to the number of tires currently in use.
As more TT manufacturers feature these premium tires and put them in the hands of the average owner it will be interesting to see how they perform.
And while I agree with you in principle, rbpru, my only nit to pick with your statement is "premium tire".
At this point in the process, since the tire has only been out for 18 months or so, at least in my mind, it has not yet earned the title of "premium". That is an attribute that may or may not be earned over the next, let's say five years or so. At this point, it falls into the category of marketing fluff.
It's like hiring a new employee. I need to see how they work out over some period of time.
EDIT: where I worked, we had essentially a 90 day period where a new person had to walk the straight and narrow. During this period, they were the FNG..... and needed to prove themselves.
This tire is the FNG.
