I thought he used KDWs?

I had gforces in the past and they aren't that great... The KDW is much better.

Car Info: 2006 WRX wagon

I have these on my wagon right now for my all season set.

Great tire, but my only complaint is they tramline a bit on the freeway & They don't look that great on the side profile (at least on my stock 06/07 wrx wheels)....ie they bulge out a bit.

One other thing is they do not have a wheel protector, so curb shots are lethal.
