Re: BFGoodrich T/A KDW NT's

yeah, i would buy another set, though i dont put many miles on them, so i dont know really how long they last. Only problem i had was high speed stability, but i have been playing with tire pressure and thats going away, so i still find them favorable.

i have a set of firestone firehawk wode ovals on my 92 and i like them too, good street tire, quite and good in the rain.

What's this about a $60 BFG rebate? I'm about to buy tires and would like to save as much as I can.

all the tire companies have rebates
shop discounttiredirect.com
BFG had an earlier rebate that expired
they informed me earlier today the new promo
starts 5.23.10
lets see i paid $508 for a set of michelin hydroedges in 05
gotta rebate which basically covered
mounting and balancing
they ship for free...big O wanted like $840
i am thinking BFG KDW NT 275/40/17
