That good, but what made you to decide on the GY LS2000 ?
No.1 reason, cost, GR90 was quoted as 120 per pc. same as Mich PP2, which was then out of stock. Wld have gone for PP2 if its available
No.2 Made in Japan
No.3 Symmetrical design (easy to do cross tyre swap)
No.4 the overall review by overseas chaps seems not bad
No.5 judging from the groove, looks deep, which translate to longer wear
No.6 Overseas rating of the tyre mileage in JP is 37-45K KM of usage
No.7 Overseas users are using it in areas where there is light snow (means grippy enough)
No.8 Marketing based on (NVR, suitable for wet conditions, good water drainage, new design etc etc)
No.9 Lots of sizes available (though I couldn't get my hands on stock size)
No.10 I am looking for stiffer sidewalls design, not the buldging sorts, out of 5 I like to have, only 2 readily available, and affordable.
Hope this helps.
