RE: Which tire is better???

The KDW2 is a great summer tire, that is what i use....they grip awesome on the pavement, small tire spin and the car goes when you hammer it......get some other tires/wheels for winter though as when the temp is below 40 you will tear them up pretty fast IMO

Ditto....They're also very "beefy" looking and have a great tread design. I have P255/45 18 all the way around. I love 'em.

Im running Toyos on the Mustang but my wife is runnung on 555's so my vote goes for Nitto.

+1 on the Toyos

Yeah, because we have the 20's, and there really isn't a ton of performance tires in that size that meet the needs of our cars. When I was checking around for 'giggles', there wasn't a whole lot out there in the ultra performance category...

Nitto 555s, got them yesterday mounted on some American Racing Rogues and have to say these a lot better than the stock pizza cutters.
