I just got my 03 MSP and I need new tires. I have 18" "touge" motegi racing wheels so I want to put 215/40/18 but I am having trouble finding a tire I like. I was thinking about going with the Bfgoodrich tires that came on the car but I have never heard any reviews on them or any tire for that mater and how they work with my car. Anyone got any info on the bfgoodrich tires or brands they have had good success with. let me know.
 
What kind of BF Goodrich tire do you have?

I've been running a pair of BF Goodrich g-Force KDW's and absolutely love them. But they're aggressive. I'm not sure what you're looking for, exactly.

Do research on Tire Rack. They have a massive amount of information on that site.
 
i would go with the the bfgoodrich g-forces, but get the ones that are dry/wet conditions. i cant remember which ones they are but i have the dry ones and they suck dick they cost me repair damage of $1300! but they are a great choice.
 
I guess i should have specified a little better but the g-force kdw's was the ones i was actually talking about. tire rack is where i found them too. So the kdw's are a good choice?
 
I use Nitto Neo Gens in 215/40/18 and they're really good, dry and wet.

At my place it was between them and the BFGs. I think I'm gonna try the BFGs next set I get.

I've never had a single problem with them -- as long as you drive with the awareness that they're a high performance tire designed for DRY conditions. :) And price-wise, you simply will NOT find better performance for the money.

how do the kdw's hold up when its wet?
They aren't fantastic, of course -- like I said, they're a performance tire. However, as long as you don't drive like an asshole, they're fine. At least they always have been for me. I've never had any sliding issues -- a little slip if I pull into gear too hard, but not a big deal in my opinion.
