Just ordered some tires, need opinions!

I dig the KDWs so I'd assume the KD's are even better in the dry, and hopefully not too bad in the wet. Snow = hell on these tires though, I've tried it! :D

Seriously, I slid off my 1* sloped driveway in 1/2" of snow, and almost couldn't get back on. Hehe, the tires just spun while the car slid 90 degrees to the side.

I ran BALD Azenis's on the back this winter and no problems here.
Im not worreid about rain. I drive like a girl anyway:D
 
They know their stuff. A little on the cautious side of course; I was at the drag strip 150 miles into a new clutch, and you are supposed to give it 500 easy miles as well...
 
How about just a healthy burn out or two...ill kill 2 birds with one stone, see how hot they get and get that coating off
 
LOL. Whatcha gonna do about the rears? You need to road race immediately or something!?
 
I have had a set of BFGoodrich KDW2s on my car since december and I absolutely love them. They really provide excellent dry and wet traction, but some of the worst traction in snow ive ever seen. (have yet to find a tire that performs amazingly in all three conditions) They aren't the cheapest tire on the block, but certainly worth it in my opinion. .. Look pretty cool aswell :)
