I'm really not sure what to think. I noticed a performance gain when I swapped wheels. However, I went from a stagger of 345/255 to 335/275. Also the wheels are lighter and I had Pilot Sports vs. PS2's. I'd say the performance gains are minimal until you get some heat in them. That would be road course or a smokey burnout before a drag race. Bill Howell said he felt the BFG KDW's actually hold better under braking in his car. I've been very happy with them across the board. I put a beating on them the last two weekends. I'll more than likely swap them for a set of BFG KDW's before my next Optima Challenge qualifier. Most of the guys are saying good things. They seem to be stickier than the 300 treadwear rating. They have a contingency program and I'd like to give myself a chance to race into the challenge. I'll keep running these until that next optima qualifier event or they are done. Once I've run both, I'll be sure to let you know my thoughts.
