i'm assuming that's for a pair. $240 isn't bad at all. and they hook up great and last a long time?
Yes, per pair. Now, I run different Kumho's on the front. I run Kumho Ectas 712's on the front. The rears are the ones I posted earlier, and "yes" they hook up better than the 3 sets of Nittos I have run in the past, plus they have lasted longer than any of the sets of Nittos.

nanaki, what size rims do you have? i'm getting some 17X9 and 17X10.5 Cobra R's and have no clue what size tire to buy for them and need good tires as well. Code, think you could find a site to buy those V400's for me?

I got the BF Goodrich KDW 2's in 295/35/18 rear 265/35/18 front and love them. I am not sure about the long time wear, I have only had them for a few weeks.

I would defanitly get nitto drag radials. I love mine, they hook pretty darn good. And I have heard if you treat them right, you can get 15k on them. Don't know how true that is, but all I am hoping for is a spring/summer season from them.

Are you going to be driving the car all year around with these tires? The BFG KDW's are good but they are not as good as the KD's. The KDW's are a good all around tire. The KD's are a performance street tire.
