BFG KDWS Opinions
So I've had these tires for about a year now, not much wear, got a great deal on them locally. They hook great and are good in rain, but not so hot in snow. One thing I noticed is they are really noisy tires audibly and how they make the car feel. Whats everyone's opinions? How long can I expect these to last. I don't think i'll purchase these again, but when i'm ready for new tires whats a decent bargain 245/50 r16 tire for a 2001 trans am?

I'd say any 'performance' tire such as that will suck in the snow. Needless to say it's easier (if you can afford it) to get a pair of snow tires, and a pair of summer tires like the BFG's you have. I havent had a personal experience with those, but I havent actually heard a bad thing about them.
When I next need tires I'm going with Pirelli PZero Nero M&S. I don't know that much about them, but I have heard they are fairly good year round, and from tirerack ratings, they don't look bad.

No Traction control. They work equally well in snow as my stock Goodyears did that came with the car which isn't saying much considering this is supposed to be an all-season tire. But for the price can't complain and I couldn't get over how my car hooked so much better than with the stock goodyears

I got over 35k on my set and sold them with the car with lots of tread left. Much better than the GY eagles in the rain and snow, but the camaro is never going to be a snow machine
