Which would you pick?
Live in texas so snow isnt an issue or something to worry about,
that being said, which would you pick? I'm having trouble deciding over the two. Any one have experience with either of the two? Reasons to choose one over the other?

Same thing with these two.

Get the slotted only rotors, the drilled rotors will stress crack. The BFG KDW's are good tires but they are noisy. The GY F1 GS-D3 are good tires but are pretty expensive. I have GY Eagle GT's and I love them. They have great dry & wet traction and after 50% treadwear they are still quiet as the day I bought them. They have an aggressive tread like the BFG KDW's but they are smooth & quiet. Many other guys that bought the Eagle GT's really like them.

I was originally gonna get the KDW's or the Hankook evo12's, but I was told the tread doesn't last long at all. I ended up with going with the Bridgestone RE960, they handle the Houston highways perfectly in rain and even better in dry weather. I'm sure they'd do the same on the 410!

I Know what you mean! ahaha
As for the tires i think i've made my choice, My uncle works for a tire comp. and he got to try these on an R8 and some other super cars.
Said they were great, so i'll be giving these a shot.

I have bridgestone potenza RE960 a/s pole position tires and their traction performance is on par with the factory tires. Tread life is much longer due to their composition. I haven't tried them out in the snow, but they are awesome in the rain.
