Advice on RBG rival
 

Looking to see if anyone here can offer some assistance sourcing a set of these.
Tire rack has them but the wait is June/July for my size..
335/30/18 and 275/35/18

I ca wait a month or two if need be but thought i would check.

Tire Rack is the exclusive seller of the new BFG Rival. You can't get them anywhere else.

After some extended testing last year we found the Falken 615K to be a significant improvement over the BFG KDW. The Falken only goes to a 315mm width, but it was still 2 seconds faster on a 35 second lap. They lasted longer too.

If nothing else they might hold you over till June, July...or whenever.

he is asking about the new rivals though not the kdw. Why isnt anyone running the ps2?

They are. A lot of the fast cars at Optima were running it.

do you mean the sport comp 2s, if that's what you're asking about I say save you're money,,,waste of rubber, it was the easiest way to make my car over 2 seconds slower :popcorn2:

yep they had great tire warmers also :thumbsup:

im running the michelin pilot sport ps2 bc i was able to get them cheaper than the falken tires

I am suprised BFG would opt to only distribute thru one source..seems like it would limit the overall sales.

My guess is that it's such a limited market and part of their business that it's no that big of a deal to give them exclusive right to start out.

I think you're thinking about the BFG Rival prototypes that performed horribly at OUSCI. 1st place was on goodyears, second was on the PS2's, 3rd was on Falkens.

For the record, about the same time as the Rival launch, several other tires are coming out that are at least as fast, or faster than the BFG's. Might be wise to hold out and see whats on the horizon.
