Default Tire info

Well I had a post about looking for more power but because of my warranty restraints looks like the mods I was gonna get aren't gonna help my current condition. So if I can't beat em on the straights I'll make up for it in the turns. I am between two Tires Bridgestone S03's or what seems like a new tire from BFGoodrich the g-Force T/A KDW-2. These tires will only see summer, and I'm not concerned about tread life. My main concerns are dry traction and wet traction. This is a daily driver but these tires might see an AutoX or a Track day every now and then. What do you think??

Falken Azensis....best bang for your buck at the moment.

Just do a search and you will see what ITR drivers have to say about these tires.

(inserts rip) shoulda told us the size first (end rip)

that's the tyre size I just got. Wanted to get the Kumho MX, but wasn't available yet so I got Yokohama A520 for now. If you're concerned about performance, I don't recommend the KDW. That things got a really soft sidewall, although the tyre looks good.

yshi - who'll be running 205/40R17 Ecsta V700 at the track

According to the Falken website, they don't.
