G-Force T/A KDW2 is better?
Roughly 10k miles on my KDW2's and they are holding up quite well. If you can deal with a bit of road noise, you should seriously look into to them. I have been in the mid triple digits on mine and have no issues.

Ive had them since last April... I think I have put on 15K on them and they are holding up pretty well... I would get them again but wider 275/295 next time around... I have 255/285 now... They are great in the wet too

I am at the point where I need to look at some new rubber. I have the stock 19's and they make a lot of noise with the original tires. I want to find something that has a quieter ride but still some longevity. Anyone have suggestions on what to look at?
I put the KDW NT on my wife's car and have been very impressed with the improved handling and grip, especially in the wet. A good value tire. Aggressive tread design and nice looking.

Liked my kdw2 set I had. Best wear rating out there for high performance rubber, 300 I think.
Never had a vibration in them and noise was livable being 245/35/20's and 285/30/20's.
Only problem I had was the 285's bead wouldn't hold air on my rear wheels.
Had to dump them. Now rolling on Dunlop Sport Maxx.

Still rolling on my KDW's. I have to say that I don't notice a weak sidewall that one poster talked about. They do make a little noise after 8,000 miles, but its livable especially with a performance tire and such a great wear rating. After 8000 miles they still look brand new.
I will buy them again. Definitely.

^^^ If you meant me and the tire bead thing, then yeah...it was the strangest thing. Not a sidewall weakness, but the bead seal on the wheel lip.
It was only on the 285/30/20's. Vendor had other ppl with problems only on that size and with 20's as well. No problems with any other tire and wheel sizes.
My rears would go flat with just sitting for a few days or about every 2 weeks with the TPSM's activating.
My Dunlops okay, but I still miss my kdw2's and liked them much better.
