pretty sure the bfg's are for smaller fwd cars. go to tirerack.com, better prices and larger variety imo. however tirerack doesn't carry nitto's.

Those Nittos would be a little bit stickier tire.

The BFG are probably a little more $, and the Nitto's are good too.

I prefer the BFG's over the Nittos. Only because the BFG tires [not this specific tire] last a lot longer than other brands.

Recently I have made the switch from BFG to Bridgestone tires and am very happy with those also.

nitto 450's kinda suck they are more of an all-weather tread w/ less contact-patch... they also make alotta road noise, id go w/ the bfg of the 2 but on my car i have a set of fuzion ZRI's and well i am really impressed... they were cheap and handle realllly well.. they launch decently but i am most impressed w/ how they grip soo good in sharp turns

Definitely the BFG's. Get the G-Force KDW... INCREDIBLE tire and it blows any Nitto away. And by the way khumo sucks. However if you are considering a tire like khumo then go with Barrums
