I don’t especially care for the GYs either but they do perform very well and are cheaper than the other performance tires out there. The only problem is they wear faster and don’t do too well in wet conditions.

If the SC3 had any hydroplane resistance, at all, I'd buy another set of them in a heartbeat. I could probably make it work with a different situation I'm in now but previously there were too many times I needed to be somewhere in a rain storm on the highway at those speeds and i couldn't make it because the SC3 tired to kill me >40mph.

I freely admit that I got caught that in these times not everyone is making a hydroplane resistant tire, I just didn't know.
