I have used F1 GSD3, even goodyear make or used to make a better wet tyre, the EAGLE VENTURA, it laughed at standing water.
I have yet to buy a F1 GSD3 that does NOT develope a SIDEWALL BULGE, for no reason at all.
I found them to be hard wearing, very good in the dry, good in the wet, but use UNIROAL RAINSPORT 1, just as good in dry 500% better in the wet, but don't last as long.
GOODYEAR SUPERCUP is awsome in the dry but will kill you in the wet, might be worth considering as a lot don;t let their cars get wet anyway(?).
On my other car I have TOYO T1R's, which are about 70% as good as uni's in the wet, but better in the dry, I would have T1R over F1 anyday.

Out of interest, what car were they on mate? They do two different types, one with a strengthened tyre wall for certain types of vehicle. I needed the strenthened type for my Lexus and i know some other lexus owners didnt have them and many developed the sidewall bulges.
