I thought that was the point of this thread, for people to post what tires they have/chose/went with. And what there opinion on there tire was. Not comparing there own tire with some other tire, people are just looking at opinions on what they think there tire performance are.

It's better to get a first hand perspective from actual 350z owners.
Exactly. I was just about to say the same thing.

Exactly. How many of you have tried nearly 20 different high performance tires over the years and used them for daily driving in all conditions and AutoX (like me and a few others on here)?

KDW II
Performance 9
Grip 8
Looks 10
Wear 10

40,000 miles till worn out (included 3 full track days). Would have bought again except for too much road noise.

BFG F1 GS-D3
Performance 8
Grip 9
Looks 10
Wear ?? Only 4k on so far

These are lighter than the kdw's. They ride a little softer at the same PSI. For abrupt turns, there is a moment when you can feel the sidewalls "set", then your good to go.
