Default Need opinions on front tires in 275/35/18

I've been looking at front tires in 275/35/18 and man there are lots of those available.

So far, I'm leaning towards either the BFGoodrich KDW2's or Nitto NT555's. Both similarly priced too.

What do you think?

Had the KDW2's and loved them. Also look at Bridgestone Potenza re760's. They have been my favorite tire so far and are asymettrical tread so you can rotate the correct way.

I've been happy with my Firestone Firehawk Wide Ovals (not in that size, but I think they're available in pretty much any size).

I had the KDW on my Stang. Loved the tread patt. but they were kinda noisy.
Went to nitto's and they were alot quieter. I got goodyear D1 on my Ta in that size and love them!

Take a look at the General Exclaim UHP it's VERY competitively priced and gets OUTSTANDING reviews at tirerack.com I bought my set in 275/35/18 based on the reviews and I'm VERY happy with them!

im running 275/35/18 Nexxen N3000 and happy with them. The tread is pretty aggressive on them.
