Opinions on the Eagle GS-C tire

I have these on my rear of my formula but they are getting kinda low.
I am pretty satisfied with them but they cost around $220 each for the 245/50/16 size.

I want some opinions from people that have used this tire as well as other tires to hel[ decide which tire I'll be going with next.

I didn't even know Goodyear still made GS-Cs. I had them on my GTA several years ago. They were OK; I had problems with the outer tread block scalloping. The rest of the tire was fine, it was just the outer tread block.

The tires I put on after that were Eagle F1s, which were OK but nothing special. I now have BFGoodrich Comp TA VR4s, which have been an outstanding tire and were cheaper than the Goodyears to boot.

I got my Bfgoodrich G-force T/A from summit for 139 a tire and they are awsome, the sidewalls are very stiff so it feels better around corners and it hooks up very good.
