the one at the top of this thread is the KDW2 ( flame tread pattern)
there pretty new so we need to wait awhile to find out long-term results..
i heard that they are almost too soft and can get "gummy" at high track and street competition driving. that was from some mag about 1 yr ago. things may have changed. They are also OEM on neon SRT's

I'll know better after this summer, hopefully have a couple of track sessions and some auto-x races under my belt with them.

Aren't these heavy? My 295/30/19's weigh 32lbs. Toyos are lighter and I have had good luck with them in the past.

I bought mine for my G35 coupe on friday and I will receive them tomorrow. Paid $1143 for a set of four. 255/35's in the front and 285/30 in the back. I have heard that the tire besides looking sick handles amazingly!

i have these on the back... and they are pretty sticky and look amazing. I have noticed that they wear pretty fast but not any worse than other performance tires. At the rate I'm going I imagine i will get about 15-20k out of these without autocross or road race time on them, just some aggressive street time...

Great dry and wet traction
Hardly any noise
If you do start spinning them and are getting sideways these will hook the instant you let off the gas

KDW-2 & KDW NT = Same tire with same tread. the "2" stand for 2nd gen and the "NT" stands for New Tread but same tire & tread. lol
