I know this question has been asked a million times...
I am not able to get on to the "OTHER" site.
What type tires do you recommend for daily driver, track, drag and rain.

Should i stick with 16's or should i get 17's? if i stay with 16's i plan to put them on stock rims. if 17's still shopping!

Thanks,
I think I'll be looking in to the BFG KDW's. Where locally can i get them? or is that not possible?
Where do they have these at a reasonable price (internet or locally doesn't matter)?

Locally, Costco is hard to beat, they offer comparative prices to tire rack, and carry Michelin and BFG tires. If they don't have them in stock, you can order them.
If not, tirerack has some good deals.

The Falkin's and BfG's KD's have been the tires to beat at the mainland auto-x's for classes that require a true street tire. But it all depends on what you really want out of your tires. And how much you are willing to spend on a set.

IMO kumho's are overrated, They're cheap and not bad tires, but compared to the other tires I've run on they're not that great...
Don't mean to step on any toes...
Oh yeah, I'm talking about the 712's, not the MX's which I haven't used or the R-compound tires which they make (which are really fun)
