Another here for G-Force Sports or KDW II's. I will only run BFG's.

I have a set of Falken Ziex street tires right now. I have no complaints,they weren't to expensive and seem to hook decently for a pure street tire.

This thread was perfect timing, I just scored some Steeda Ultralights cheap! They are 18x9 and I never thought I would run a 18" tire on my fox but the deal was too good to pass up. These will be going on the 93 GT so I will need something with some traction.

Are we talking about the same tire? I had a set on my Fox for probably 3 or 4 years before I finally retired them. Its the tire of choice for Skip Barber racing schools, and they're like 20-30$ cheaper than most similar tires.

Yeah seriously, the 245s I had on some ponies and I abused em, drag raced every Fri and Tues night with em and they still looked brand new after a year. Real sticky on the street, did well in the rain and ok in the snow/slush. They were stolen after a little over a year of use. The 275s I had on some 17s held up to my HCI 302 really well on the street, spun 1st and part of 2nd but you were still moving if that makes sense. I sold those wheels and they are still serving the new owner quite well. I look forward to pickin up my 3rd set when the tires I got with my new ponies come apart

Haha, yep. Maybe after this we can do a "which shifter?" or "what lowering springs?" thread.

I think I'll go ahead and try the KDW II's out.

My car should be on the dyno this weekend getting tuned, so I'll go ahead and order them so I can switch them over. I'm going to try out my new line lock with the old nittos

Firestone Firehawk Wide Ovals.

Great wet trac and they become super sticky in the summer as well.
