Has anyone experienced these tires in the rain? Any feedback?

On the track they are useless compared to Cup2s in the wet. After one wet session at OIR I called it quits. Cup2s are not bad in the rain. Cup2s in N0 are also a bit better than the goodyears in the dry.

Not the same tire, but same philosophy by Goodyear. I just swapped out my Cup 2's on my GT4 for the Goodyear Supercar 3 tires and they are a HUGE upgrade!!!. They have much stiffer sidewalls, which makes the whole platform and chassis more laterally stable, they are NOT bi-compound like the Cup2's, so if you have a lot of negative camber, you are constantly going back and forth from the two compounds on the Cup 2's.

The stiffer sidewalls not only make the car more laterally stable, it also allows the suspension to work a little better on the vertical plane. I have found that they have more grip than the Cup 2's and take a set in turns much better.

They are also cheaper to boot, it's a WIN, WIN, WIN

All of Goodyear's performance tires follow the stiff sidewall approach, and it is very noticable.

I’m enjoying the OEM Goodyears on track. Best OEM Porsche tire for me so far.

I wish the 3Rs were available in more sizes to try.
