g-force tires?

I've been doing the same research lately. Seems like the KDW's are some of the best tires around for dry traction, with a slight nod towards wet traction. KDWS's lean more towards water, and KD's more towards dry. I think I'll put KD's on mine. Finding an actual tire comparison is tough. It's either the biggest secret, or the biggest mystery.

I have the BFG g-Force KDWS in 245x45 17. I like them a lot. Two gripes though; they seem to be wearing out rather quickly, and they are on the noisy side. However, neither of those two complaints have moved me away from them. I plan on a new set come late October or snow.

Our old Bill S. gave the G-forces high praises about a year or so ago. I stuck the KDWS 275/17/40 all around and I'd say traction improved about

50% over the stock Goodyears from my 2000 GT

I went with the KDWS for an all weather all around good tire for a daily driver. I was running the Comp T/As with my 5.7L GTA and they beat the Goodyears all to heck.

BFG has apparently discontinued the Comp T/A and replaced it with the gForce T/A KD/KDWS.... though I am not certain of that.

I went with the 225/50Z16 and the question is going to be the wear factor. The soft compound of the Z tires caused me to replace the Goodyears every 6 to 10 months... and without pushing them. I could run my hand over the tread and rub the rubber off. The BFG Comp T/As held up a lot better, and I am hoping these do the same. If not, it's back to the drawing board.

Noise was not a problem with the Comps. I d>Hello all,

my initial response would be - he'll love em

but if hes looking for great drag race-type launch traction on a 400hp machine i would think hell need to run drag radials or et streets

i have been running the g-force kd for about 15k on my daily driver 03/04 cobra. i will def buy again. excellent grip. and they are great even in the wet

peace

I have the 225/55ZR16 KDWS for my 93 GT and have had no problems so far..now I only had them for a week...Plus they were pretty good priced (around 115 a piece installed)
