I've checked everywhere for them (KDW NT or 2's) and can't find them. If you know a source give me a heads up. Thanks.

NT is the same as "2"

its the original tread they made them..

If you look at www.bfgoodrichtires.com it is the first tire size on the 3rd page...

KDW TT = Tradiatial Tread

KDW NT = New Tread

The tire compositions are identical just the tread pattern has changed. Tire Rack seems to think they need to list them separate instead of denoting which are which.

BFG has a 275/40/18 in the TT tread design but not in the NT design. I want the NT. I'm SOL on this one. I might go with Avon. Not a bad tire for the money and a lot quieter than the Toyo's I'm now running.

You seem to be notorious for being a whiner and complainer. I think every post of yours has been basically talking down to people and *****ing/moaning. Maybe you shouldn't be so arrogant and lighten up. Thanks.

You are the kind of person that makes me want to stop coming on these forums and helping people. Your posts have done nothing but attacked me which I don't find funny.

Then perhaps be a bit more tactful in the way you post. Your "helping" is always done by talking down to everyone and being arrogant. Lighten up some. Anyway, done here, to the OP - they're a great choice just get them already (whatever you want to call them)! Thanks.
