I love the KDW's sweetest tread design I have ever seen and they hook up!

yes the BFG's are awesome BUT the tread life on those are worse than the Nittos... i was going to get Nitto's for DD and BFG's for the track but went with the cheaper ones... BFG's grip more than the Nitto's ... but for DD i still spin with them... they only get great traction at the track and at a lower psi..
Nice Stang BTW //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
Well honestly it doesn't help that they don't have much tread to begin with haha... I have BFG All terrains so those drag radials are a joke to me
Yeah if I EVER got a car those would be my top choice of tires
x2 i will probly stick with these they are nice... my rear has lost it a couple times in the rain but the fronts are great... of course DR's dont have traction in the rain anyway lol def. have to go the speed limit when its raining and depending on how bad you might want to drive 5 or 10 mph slower

definitely gonna need some pics!
The body style changed in 94, so they were all the same from 94-98. In fact, as it relates to the rear wheel well, I'm pretty sure they are the same all the way up through 2004.
I had 315/35/17 Nitto Drags on my 98 GT. Sweet tires. Lasted about 12k miles, though. I squeezed them onto a 9 inch wheel, btw.

If you are looking for a good tread life cross out the BFG DR's. I'm running them right now on my GTO, it's the best "hooking up" tire I have had yet. Though they are horrible in the rain and I mean HORRIBLE! On top of that they only last 3-6k miles.
I've also had the Nitto 555R's on the goat. They hooked up alright. I would say it's the best daily driver DR out there. It's tread life is 8-14k (depending on how hard you are with them). On top of that they are pretty good in the rain.
On top of that I've also had (still use them for the fronts) is the BFG KDW2's. They are by far the best street tire I've ever had. They hook great for a street tire and handle awesome. On top of that they are amazing in the rain. They should last 20-25k miles IMO.
I've had a few other tires on the goat as well. Though I'll only run the BFG KDW2's in the front and the BFG DR's or Nitto 555R's in the rear. With the 315's in the rear the Nitto's should almost hook as good as the BFG DR's... maybe.

I have the 555R's, and they arent half bad. They last the longest out of all DR's, and when my car actually runs, they work out pretty nicely.
