Pics of KDW2s please Hey guys. I'm pretty much set on buying these tires to go on my new C6 rims. I just wanted to see some pics of them on cars. TA or Camaro doesant matter. Just want to get some different angles. Also, for those who have them, how do they perform?

I want the KDW2s so bad but my size is on back order since the summer and I cant get them... They are nice looking tires. The stick very well, and are a little more louder but an exhaust or radio will take care of that

I guess from hearing all these good reviews, I'm 100% positive that I'm getting the tires. Just gonna wait a little longer (I cant put them on yet anyway. Not with winter bein here). The rears are gonna be $230 a piece plus shipping. I think the fronts are about 190 a piece.

tire rack DOES have them in a 295-35-18. they are 230$ a piece. I know they will be a larger diameter. but only about a half inch larger. my tires that I have now are about that different. I have toyo proxes 245-50-16 up front and kumho ecsta 245-50-16 in the rear. They are the same size tire, but the kumhos are a little taller. I guess just because of the general design of the tire. Also, I know someone with a mustang who has 265-35-18 tires in front and 285-35-18 tires in back and he says hes never had any problems with ABS/TCS.

Okay...here's a nit-picky question. Why does it seem like all BFG tires (or the vast majority of them) come with gunk all over the sidewalls (see pics above)? I sat on my knees for at least an hour scrubbing that **** off the sidewalls with Goo Gone. Not even Simple Green seemed to work on this stuff...

I only notice after I drive on them and see how much dirt and dust that **** picks up. I've pulled back in my garage at least once with brown sidewalls...I was sick at the time, and it bothered me enough where I sat on the cold garage floor fixing it, health be damned.
