I have the KDW's on the front's and BFG Drag radials on the rear. I love em! Except the DR's **** in the rain and aren't made for handling at high speeds because of the soft sidewalls.

Not on a Viper, but I do run the BFG KDW2's in 275/40/18 on the back of a 430RWHP Firebird Formula and they are "okay". The only thing I don't like about them is that they are SILENT all the time, no way to tell when they are about to break traction other than feeling the car. This is fine 99% of the time, but every now and again it can suprise you on a high speed corner. I have had them on for appx. 7k miles and with my driving style, a few burnouts and 3 track runs, they might have 5k more in 'em.

Good info. Doesn't sound that bad to me, especially 'cause they're not track tires exactly. But still...has anyone got them on their vipe yet? ( yes, <u>all</u> four tires )

Discontinued in 335 widths. I tried to order some about a month ago. They are still listed on discounttire.com, etc. (not Tirerack though). Don't know how long they've been out of production, but I haven't been able to find any.
