Kumho XS> KDW (For street/Handling applications)

Are you looking for a Drag radial or a good street tire. BC the KDW is not a D/R

Those are the newer Model BFG Drags. Nice Thread for sure. Post feelback.

I heard the Second gen Nitto DR's are GREAT. First gen Nittos suck donkey ......

Then again I run 315 V700 Kumho out back and the suck donkey .....

Why I love my ecstas XS 295's all around.

Get some NT05R's. I love them, they hook great. I daily drive on mine. They even do pretty good in the rain.

Like i said, i love my nt05r's. I would recommend them to anyone and you cant beat the price. Discount tire direct has them for like $175 a tire or something.
