Tire Question, not a poll

Im buying new tires and considering the Yoko AVS dbS2 ( http://www.yokohamatire.com/TireIntro.asp?TireID=8 ), It seems like a nice tire any thoughts.:SNSign:
I was also considering Pirelli, Nitto and BFG , all tires around $180 in a 245/45/17

 

[Kilgore Trout]

I think Yokohamas were the worst tires I ever owned

 

[streetstang03]

no complaints w/ my Nitto NT555s. i think im going w/ BFg KDW 2's next though

 

[squares98]

Ive had bad yokohamas too, but that was like 5 years ago, so maybe times have changed?
also I thought the KWD-2's were not in production

 

[squares98]

nevermind i see yokohama still sucks

 

[jasonh_86]

BFG KDW is a gooooood tire, i had it on my car and never realized how nice they were til i got a couple of cheaper tires on the back.. no i hook like crap

 

[jasonh_86]

Oh yah.. the Nitto 555 is good too, from what everyone has said.. i'd consider that as a top 2 choice

i had yoko AVS on my old MR2. Didn't last 6 month. They are :Total-CP:

For what I paid the Nitto's are pretty good, next time I may try BFG's KDW's.

Anyone running Pirelli P Zero Nero A/S

You'll like them.. well, you probably will anyways

Go with BFG KDW II, an excellant tire for the price. I have them on my car and they hook up really good and not to bad in the rain either.

I have the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS D3s. They grip pretty well but are expensive. Next ones I'm going to try are the BFG KDW2s.

On Edit:

Since we're bragging about our rubber...

Let's see them!!! :SNSign:

If anyone here is on a budget, I reccomend the Kumho tires. I paid about $95 a piece and they are much better than the stock Goodyear Gatorback tires. They hook a little better, and work great in the rain. I've had them for over a year now and they are holding up very good. It's a good price for a Z-Rated tire.

Anyone running Pirelli P Zero Nero A/S

I have the Pirelli P-Zero Rosso 295/35/18 on the rear of mine. Very soft compound. Ride pretty good, hook and handle really well. However, they only last around 10-12k miles. Lots of $$$, but very grippy.

 

[flames201]

i have the kdw2's and they are great. will be using these from now on out. i have some friends who have them on thier cobra's and get really good traction so i figured what the heck. the best decision i've made yet are these tires.

KDW 2's for me next too.

 

[5.0zone]

I have the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS D3s, 285/40/17 on 17x9 Bullits all the way around. I love em and plan to buy them again. I'm a big BFG fan but decided to try the Goodyears after reading the reviews on TireRack.
Price was $199 each + shipping.

 

[Chowder Head]

Any ever used the Traction T/A v's, or the Firehawk Wide Ovals?

I need some tires soon and want something 100% streetable with very good thread life that handles like a dream and is nice a quiet.

I was recommended these tires but does anyone else have some personal experience with them?

Thanks guys.

BFG Gforce sport ~$130/tire and will hold traction just like a KDWS.
