I'm so happy with my kdws. I've also pulled 1.8x 60 foot times on them.

mtg6486 04-04-2009 04:08 PM

nice yea im starting to lean towards them that 60' isnt bad. what psi were you running in the tires?

18 psi with a burnout enough to see smoke but not much more.. I'm not sure if theres a difference, but I don't think mine say NT on them. Specifically says G-Force T/A KDWS.. best 60' is a 1.83x on them.

KD = Dry weather tire
KDW = Dry and wet weather tire
KDWS = Dry, wet, snow tire

I've run both the KDW's and KDWS's. For a 3 season car the KDWs were noticibly better than the KDWS's. But in that 4th season the "S" really pays off.

KDW's are very good, and the NT stands for "new tread" design, aka the flame design as supposed to the traditional diamond shapped directional thread.

I dunno much about Nittos, they are part of thier drift series tires I beilve?
