Finally got my new tires mounted. I posted over on SL, but no one seems to care, so I thought I'd try again. :)

:bash:

Tires:
- BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 (KDW NT)
- 215/45/17 (OEM size)
- $540 shipped from tirerack.com (discounttire may have been cheaper but didn't have that size)

I'm pretty happy with them so far. Seem to have quite a lot of grip. It was wet the first night I had them on and I was just toying around and actually had a bit of trouble getting them to get loose starting from a redlight. Of course I COULD spin them if I really tried, but I would spin my POStenzas anytime it was wet out.

There is some road noise, but it's not that bad and I have a stereo, so it's all good. :)

Unfortunately, yes. I'll have to start putting money away now for winter tires. :rofl2:

Just the rear right now. Will wait on the front. Want to run an autox or two first to see if I'll really need it.

Nice shoes! My postenzas are near dead, so I am getting ready to be shopping for some as well. I have a winter car, so I dont necessarrilly need the best tires in the world for snow, but would like them to do ok in cold and rain. Looking at Falkens right now. Keep us up to date on how those perform and wear.
