Just got done making a purchase. Got them from americanmuscle.com

View attachment 385729



Just waiting to get them delivered to the house. I want to go with the BF Goodrich KDW NT 295/35 back and 265/35 front.

Just curious as to how much you guys with similar tires or the same paid?!?!

As soon as I get the wheels/tires on the stang I will post some pics

I just bought 2x 275/35/18 KDW2s from tirerack. 436 +23 shipping. So F-ing expensive. I'll order the rears next month along with some 18x10 rear rims. The 295s are about 260 I think.

It seems pricey but for top quality tires the KDW2s are quite reasonable. I considered Goodyear F1 GS-D3 (who the **** comes up with these tire names?), but they were much more $$$.

Those rims are sweet.

Im not sure if you have a Town Fair Tire where you live but they match online prices on tires + shipping. I got Toyo T1R's for 190something each for 295/35 and 265/35 were 170 or so. However, bringing in tires and wheels NOT purchased at a dealer will most likely result in them telling you they dont mount tires that were brought in. I got the black FR500's. Good stuff

i forget the price per tire, but with KDW2s all around, 295 out back and 275 up front on 18's, the damage was a total of 900-950$.

Found my invoice:

295/35ZR-18 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 @ $230 Ea x (2) = 460$
275/35ZR-18 BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 @ $200 Ea x (2) = 400$

after shipping it was $904.

btw sears will mount and balance them for 100$ for all 4. less if you know the guy.....free if you buy him beer.

I'm excited for us both!! Best choice of stang-specific wheels and street performance tires for a new edge stang. Soon the market may be flooded but I have yet to see any in LA and surrounding counties.

Going to my buddy's shop tomorrow to install the exact same wheel/tire combo.
