Default just can't decide!

ordering tires as we speak, can't decide between:

1. toyo t1-r
2. bfg kdw2

in 245/40/18 (f) and 255/45/18 (r).

i'm looking for good life versus peak performance, since i am purchasing a set of track wheels. vote my poll so i can place my order! both will be under $700 shipped.

i really like the t1-r cuz of the low road noise and wet/dry traction.

seems like both tires do well in the rain as well as dry conditions, the kdw2s being a bit more responsive but noisier. i guess my main selling point is which one lasts the longest, with, proper alignment ofcourse.

1. toyo t1-r tread wear rating: 280
2. bfg kdw2 tread wear rating: 300

I don't think I’m eligible to vote because I don't have either.

I've had way too many problems with BFG. Dunno about the KDW's but all the previous low profile BFG's sidewalls have sagged on my other cars. Two wheels have bent due to BFG's. Never going that route again.
