Default Anything better than Goodyear F1 GS-D3 in terms of handling/comfort combination?

I need to replace a set of GS-D3 on an E46 3-series, I am happy with their handling/ride comfort/wear.

Is there something newer that handles as well while remaining comfortable?

Thanks!

Bridgestone RE050A PP maybe, but I have no personal experience with it.

Default Agreed.

Close to GSD3 in nearly every other measurement, but the 050aPP will remain quieter as they wear.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/tires/index.jsp">Tires</a></li></ul>

Default Gary, are you going to test the CSC3 any time soon? ...

I am curious how it stacks up against some of the other max perf. tires like RE050A PP and F1 GSD3.

I'm curious too as it looks to be very promising, but as of now we do not yet have a schedule for this seasons testing. Often tire tire testing is weather dependent and last-minute (depending on inventory since we use so many in a single test) as well.
