Default BFG g-Force T/A's.................

I am looking for a different rim/tyre set up for summer. I have a feeling I am going to have traction troubles at the track (Not proven yet but, taking a guess ). I have seen a couple EVO's running these, and I was wondering all around what kinda tyres they are. Ride, Traction, Handling, all those sorta things. If you know of any other good street/track tyres throw them out there. The car is only driven during summer or when its warm out so sticky is how I want them.

I recommend KDW. You will fall in love with those. Great for all season & track use.

Lots of my buddies that have these love them. They say they are also excellent in the rain.

yokohoma parada spec II's, alot better than kdw's. My srt4 came stock with kdw's and they sucked, no traction at all. When I switched to spec II's, it was like night and day. Tons of grip in dry or wet weather. I have been using parada's for 5 years now and will never go to another tire again.

I have seen SRT-4's come with the KDW's and I have seen them lose traction a lot too. I dont know what to choose from, I havent heard much about the Yokohamas but dont want to knock them untill I see them in action

Thats because the tired aren't that wide & perhaps the person doesn't know how to drive a boosted car.

You mean as in the person not launching correctly? I mean, how do you drive a boosted car?
