Which tires?? Kumho or BFG

[joshheat25]

I am debating between the Kuhmo Ecsta SPT and BFG G-Force t/a KDW. They both have similar treadwear and Prices just Wanted some Reviews and Opinions. I plan on buying 285/40/17 to put on 10.5 inch rims. Thanx ttyl

BFG is the best of those two. The KDW is a great tire, so is the KDW2

4 BFG G-Force t/a KDW's would cost me $800 and thats with free shipping no tax and free install and balance
your paying 30-40 dollars a tire for the design, they arnt really much better than g-force sports plus the KDW are know to be loud

The Kumho will last longer....I only got mine because the KDW2's were back ordered like 2 months and my rims had already arrived. Old tires were bald too

Neither get Goodyear F1 GS D3's you will love them.

BFG all the way!

I liked my KDW2s I had on my old rims. They were a good tire for the price. I imagine the KDWs are just as good.

Out of that limited choice of two, I would recommend the BFG's which will provide better traction. However, the Nitto 555 or the Goodyear Eagle GSD-3 are superior tires.

I'd go with the Kumho's.

Get the Kumho's that turn colors when you do a burnout.

So... Most of you guys are saying go with the BFGood rich Well I can buy either the KDW or the KDW-S They are both similar prices so which one of those are better the KDW has a treadwear of 300 AA A and the KDW-s is a 400 AA A. Has anyone bought these Kuhmos and can say they are good or bad? Good years in this size are 440 shipped compared to 275 shipped for the BFG and 257 shipped for the Kuhmos. Thanx

Anyone with BFG KDW or KDW-S

BFG KDW's here, stock size. Not sure about the noise comment stated above, mine seem to be pretty quiet. Treadwear looks pretty good, I prob have roughly 6-8k miles on them, and tread looks nearly brand new with pretty normal driving, I dont spin them much. Handling is decent, I've only pushed them to the point of starting to lose grip maybe 1 or 2 times.

I have the Kumhos. Wet traction is good, but I think that dry traction would be better with the KDW's.

I only bought them because the KDW's were backordered at the time, but in actuality, they are hard to beat for the price.

I love my F1s.

But out of the two, I would go with the KDWs.
