I purchased that tire when it first came out and they were already on back order. All I can say is that it is a great tire, although I have only probably put around 750 miles on them. I would agree with the reviews on Tirerack.com, as many of the other buyers have had nothing but rants an raves about this particular tire. I went with 265/35/18 in the front and 295/35/18 for the rear and you will nto be dissapointed with that set up.

cool well I just ordered mine from discount tire for the rear it was 264 and the front was 228 so I do not think that is to bad. How is the traction and tread wear on these are they good for ocational drag racing and road course racing or just good for street use.

i think a 45 series tire would be a little too tall, it may work but it might look funny...

He is right. The 45's would be way too tall. I go 30's on the rear 35's on the front. These are the 255-35-18's in that same tire. They are really good all around tires. They wear a little faster in the fron than the KD's.

Well I ordered them yesturday after work they do not have any 295-35-18 so unless I wanted to wait 6wk for them to make some more and then another 6wks for them to get to me I chose to go with the 285-40-18 it was a difficult dicision but it had to be done they do not make a 305 or 315 the next size bigger was a 330 and that is way to big so I hope those work.
