BF Goodrich gForce T/A KDW's
 
Hey Y'All,

Baby needs some new shoes!!! Found a great deal on these BF's, but have not heard anything about them. Anyone have an opinion???

Should I just stick with the PS's? Been a great tire, but terrible wear life and expensive as hell.

Just want to get more miles, great performance, for as little as possible. I know I can do it! JK.

Thanks for the help in advance!

I have heard the road noise is terrible on them. I decided on the Nitto NT555's and really have been impressed with them. Not a bad price either and the wear life has been much better than the stock tires...

Ive got KDW2's on my car, theyre great. Very sticky tires, road noise isnt bad at all.

I have them on the rear, and road noise is not a problem.

They're just not as sticky as the stock tires.

I used to have them on my front and rear...now just front because i smoked the rears to much haha and baught a cheaper tire. They are awesome tires...def handle extremely well.

had them both and the nito are definitely lowder. I currently have the BFGs and i'm very happy with them. They are sticky initially but about 25 to 40% into the thread life not as sticky. Tirerack.com has an extensive writeup on them, check it out. Road noise is not even a factor since i installed the stillen gen2 catback, i hear that instead of the tires.

I have 245 /275 19" versions on my G and I love them. Better than the stock Bridgestones for wet traction, looks, road noise, and tread life.
thumbs up from me. I am also buying a second set for my Accord as well.

I have the KDW but not the 2's even still they are a very good tire for a daily driver, the KDW'2 had more road noise I am pretty happy with these

I had a set of KDWS's on my '00 Mustang GT convertible, and the road noise was negligible, far quieter than the Goodyear Eagles that came on the car.

there good tires, there jst really beefy.........id get some toyos, cant go wrong either way

Mountian Pirate 11-02-2006 02:09 PM

Got them all aound on my 04.5-6mt, coupe...love em

HYBRID ITR43 11-02-2006 09:41 PM

I had them on my ITR and I have them on my G35. I love them. Great for daily driving and occasional tracking.

Aznteazer 11-03-2006 12:22 AM

i got them on my stocks w/same size as factory. the grip was good and wasn't really that loud after couple days.

V35 Skyline GT 11-05-2006 01:17 PM

I have them and like them much more than my oem's. Not noisy imo.
They are beefy. Running 285/30/20 on 20X10 wheels w/ 25 os. on rears.
Rather brush my tire on a curb (on those bad judgment days) than get curb rash on my wheels.

CtK 11-06-2006 01:18 PM

i got them and they are great in the wet and dry!! i thought the stock Pilot Sports were louder than these

are these the KDW-2 that has the flame looking tread??

g35rcr 11-06-2006 03:24 PM

i have these, went from the old tread to the new tread design, they seem to hold up better in wet driving with the new treads...but hey with 255 front and 295 rear the car will hold the road
