kdw's were nice when I had them, the only reason I went with my t1r's after the kdw's is because the kdw's wet handling wasn't as great as I would like. The kdw's lasted 20k with a couple of soloII's thrown in there, 1 trip to phoenix,az. , and a trip to socal.

Best tires I've ever had were Michelin PS 2's at the time, they've since been replaced with PS3's but are way too expensive to buy for a college student for use on a dd.

I bet I drive like more of a ***** than crash does. during a normal work week commute, my car would see zero wot. I never got on my car at all unless i just put new parts on, or if i'm actually racing someone or on a cruise with other people. this is mainly because most of my commute is heavily populated city driving and my cars too loud to go wot in around there.

That's the same size tire I'm looking for, but I can't find anything affordable. What are you guys having to pay for a 295?

$510 shipped to my door, i ordered them on the 28th late at night, shipped on the 29th, door this morning. Got em through tire rack

I drive pretty calm during the week, unless some pos Prius is in the fast lane, then I usually go wot as I cut em off for going so slowly. I know, it sounds douchy of me but I can't stand when they go 60mph in the fast lane during non carpool hours -_-

Here are some teaser shots right before being mounted on my B. It's been raining here of late but I'll post some pictures tomorrow when the car is washed and we have some good weather. Enjoy!
