agreed i have them on the front of my car in a 245 40 18, and i run a dunlop S9000 Sport in a 285 35 19 in the rear. both tires are great but i believe i will put some generals in the rear next time!!! cant beat them for the price and they are ranked number 1 by tire rack in the ultra high performance class! they beat like 46 tires!!! my 18's only cost 120.00 each

Had Falken on my T/A and they sucked, had Goodyear GSC's (Came on some rims I bought) on my first Z28 I had back in the day, they were great but wore out Sooo fast, My current camaro I have BFG KDW's on all four corners right now, but voted General, because I am gonna try the Exclaim UHP's for my next tire here in a few months being this is my DD, and the poll was what rubber are you rolling on, and that is what I will soon be rolling on

I got BFG KDs on the front and 315 Sumitomos on the back because they're$97 per tire instead of $260 for the KDs. I have MT DRs on a pair of 16" Z28 wheels that I put on before driving to the track so I guess I should cast my vote for them.

Me too. 245-45-17 in front and 315-35-17 out back. They're actually not bad in the rain but don't hook as well on dry pavement as I'd like for the price.

^ Agreed, I think they are just fine in the rain, I've never had issues. I don't think I'm going to find a street tire that will hook though, the stall just destroys any kind of traction I could hope for.
