well another close of a shift at work, thanks for the input
and nice to hear from ya D

 

I have them, and love them.. They handle great. Ive had a lot of fun power sliding through turns latley, as soon you stomp on the gas they grab and pull the rear end right back in line..

I read the BFGoodrich Gforce KDW2s are the sh** as far as handling, but they are very noisy and have a short lifespan..

So yes those tire are great, especially for the price!

tirerack.com, make sure you get the option insurance (if you get a flat for any reason they buy you a new tire)

 

I was looking at these and the Nitto Invo's.
Went with the Invo's since they weren't so hard to locate.
Just under $800 w/shipping.
Very sticky even in the cold.
Soft enough to really improve the ride over the stock Conti's.
Soft side wall tends to suddenly shift in REALLY high G turns - still grips well, but I wouldn't recommend them if you are really pushing the envelope. Great cruiser/sport tire; great on H2O, but not for maximum performance. So so on snow, but that's why I also have a pickup.

 

looks like we all made a great choice in rubber,
i enjoy the response from all members, and i value the input very highly
and really value my friend and mentor SF for advise, thanks all.. keep em coming
