I'm not sure I could tell that much difference with grip between the GP 4s & Gator Hardshells, but I do thin it was slightly better.

I find the Gator Hardshells are much longer lasting tires that the other two, and was pretty disappointed when the GP 4 Seasons started showing casing threads what seemed prematurely.

I can't tell much difference in ride quality and rolling resistance between them (Usually 25mm tires for me).
That's some good feedback thankyou. I was originally considering 4-seasons due to them being marketed as a faster tyre and 100g less weight per tyre (beaded)
