Default What are the best looking street tires?

When I saw a black LS1 Trans Am with the American Racing Torque Thrust rims and Goodyear Eagle GS-D3's, I realized that the appearance of the tires really make a difference. The patterns on the GS-D3's were freaking aggressive and make the rims look wider than they are. Are there any other street tires that look as good or better than the GS-D3's? Thanks in advance for the info.

GSD3s, nittos or GS-Cs get my vote for best looking tires

A032's are HOT, but they're not the best DD tire out there.

IMO, the BFG KDW NT (Flame Pattern) is the best looking tire out there with the GS-D3 following in a close second.

personally thats something thats like a bonus to me. i just want the function of the tires, and if they happen to look badass, thats a bonus. i would rather know that im gonna stay firmly planted to the road, and not fly off in a moment of stupendous mis-judgment on my part..

I have these and love them, even though they aren't the KDW's they're good even during tropical storms!!!

Have to agree with this. Function first. That said, I like the Pilot sports for looks alone.
