gsd3s are huge for what they are. my front tires of the same size look half an inch smaller

i dont think the bfg makes a 315 for either the kdw or kdw2. you should go with the eagle f1's anyway tho.

according to the reviews on tirerack, the G-Force T/A KDW's had a lot of road noise once they got a few miles on them, and there were no such reviews posted for the GS-D3's....and the GS-D3's had better wet & dry handling ratings, so i'd definitely go for them (and i did, too....just haven't been able to run them yet, due to a mix-up in the way my new wheels were made).

I've run both tires (in stock 275 width anyway) and am much more satisfied with the BFGs. Better wear, handling, and response, and I never felt that excessive road noise was an issue. Plus they cost less than the GS-D3s.

get pilot sports if you want to spend almost double PER TIRE for a fractional if any performance increase

315/35ZR17
but for an 18" wheel, you will have a lot harder time finding them.

what are *****'s here guys? If your car is loud enough you're not hearing any road noise... they're tires, they make noise... I would get the tire that gives you the best performance.
