Has anyone tried the BF Goodrich T/A KDW? I'm looking for some all-purpose tires for my GTS... good for dry and good enough for wet on a daily driver. I don't plan on tracking with these tires, at the most possibly some light autoX. I'd have a different set for the tracks. These seem pretty good on paper and relatively inexpensive.

I bought some once for my '95, but was discouraged from using them. Other people mentioned that they aren't forgiving, and let go quickly like a slick. My pilots make a lot of noise when slipping, and then they change to a howl right as they start to let go.

I currently have on some old bfg's but i think they are drag slicks, and don't grip all that well. These are different though.

BFG's claim to fame is their truck tires.Mud,AT,etc.Wouldn't be without them on my 4x4 PU. GTS Bruce

...but are these specific ones any good? Hard to believe everyone here only use michelins, kuhmos, and the occasional pirelli and dunlop.
