I know somebody with GP 4-seasons and like 'em they're a little lighter and more performance oriented. I've been told the GP4000S is great tire but a bit more of a summer tire. BTW I don't think tread really matters in a tire of this diameter (still skinny). The tire is not going to hydroplane, the contact patch is too small with too much pressure on it.
