Im going to be buying some new tires for my stock rims. I know mitsuguy has a lot of expearience. I want non-directional, light weight, good tread wear, dont care about particular brand name.
tires, oh my how tires affect EVERYTHING here... My favorite (and I have driven almost all of them out there) are the BFG KDW's (the new tread, or "2")
They are awesome, tire weight is reasonable for the size, and traction is amazing. They go in the wet too, they're actually surprising in wet weather (good).
There are better traction tires out there, BFG KD's, and maybe a couple others, but these are the best I've found for a high performance daily driven car...
amen to that. i have a set of KDW on stock mk3 supra sawblades and they handle better then any other tire i have tried so far. in the wet they are really good too. if i keep my supra tt wheels or buy my buddies wheels i will definitely be getting KDW for them. the only complaint i have is the tread wear. i had the car to two drift days and full summer of driving and they were gone. the KDW were on the front only and some crappy skinny on the back to burn up.
maybe without drift days they would last a lot longer. i still have them in my garage and they are still definitely drivable but i was surprised about the wear on the fronts.
