looks good guys! How do you like the KDW2s as far as traction and cornering ability? Also how do they compare to the other style of KDWs if you know?

I have Michelin Pilot Sports on mine, they're ok but too expensive imo. I got the wheels from www.buywheelstoday.com

They handle great! Though with 420+RWHP no street tire has traction, not even the Nitto DR's give my goat traction. I'm going to keep the KDW2's up front (very pleased with them), though I'm swapping the rear ones for BFG DR's and using them daily so I can get some traction off the line
