Default New 18" tires for us

It seems B.F.Goodrich is releasing a new 335-30-18s in April.
BFGoodrich g-Force Rival Extreme Performance Summer
You want extreme dry street performance and are willing to trade some comfort and hydroplaning resistance to get it.
Extreme Performance Summer


Also, BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 Ultra High Performance Summer
You want an outstanding blend of dry and wet street traction and handling.
Ultra High Performance Summer

are available in 335-30-18s also.

I am not too crazy about KDW2 tread design - not from a performance standpoint but aesthetically look too off-roadish.
g-Force Rival looks to be a good dry performer.

They are both listed at Tirerack.

I am worried about 17's in a 335. They are becoming scarce. I had the KDW 2 and they were a good tire for the money.

I'm going to buy the 345 40 17's for the 13" Dymags. May buy a couple sets. They're about $400 a pair. I'd hate to stop running the Dymags but tires are definitely getting scarce in a 335 or 345 17" size.

Yun,

Check with Mike Geyer and others who have these tires. Very reasonably priced but very loud tire.
