Hey, i plan on getting some new tires for my stang, i wanna go 285/40/18 rears and 255/45/18 on the front, i was just wondering what tires you guys run and what you recommend. I like the look of the BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2's and i know they perform well, but i was wondering what else looks good and performs well for summer performance tires?
Also do you guys think the big rears and smaller fronts look good

i have actually heard from a lot of people that the p-zero nero's are pretty good all around tires

stick with the bf's I have the nittos 555's they are slightly cheaper than the bf's but the bf's do hook up a little bit better.

I'm using the Nitto NT555s, pretty damn sticky for street tires. Hundred times better than the stock BFGoodrichs. It's pretty tough to spin the tires when taking a hard turn. :)

+1 ON THAT! Dunlops are my fav for price/money. But if money was no object I would definitly get P-Zero's (not nero's).

I just got my new 07 and it has p-zero nero's. When I read your post I didn't realize thats what I have. Maybe we should let everyone know they are Pirellis. I don't have many miles yet so I can't say how good they are but they handle great.

They squeal too much around corners.

Here is a comparison between stock 235/55/17 Pirelli and the BFG KDW-2. Front 255/35/20 & Rear 285/30/20
