oh yeah i dont know if its a daily driver . if your driving in snow or heavy rains the kdw's are good they wear a LOT better and give better WET traction.

If you're looking for good sticking on a daily driver, I'd still recommend the traction TA's H-Rated speed series. Mine seem to be wearing very well after several thousand miles. I expect to get at least 35 to 40 thousand miles on them, and compared to a lot of the prices I see quoted on here, they were fairly cheap. But you didn't mention if you're running stock size or not. If you have a different size, they may not be available.

Take a look at the Kumho Ecsta MX, not a DR but a very grippy tire from what i hear. They're also very reasonably priced.

BFGoodrich G-Force Sport is supposed to be a pretty good tire.
