I don't think those blue inserts do anything. Besides, I can see that one of them is even crooked.
Those BFG tires were my first choice but I opted for the cheaper Kuhmos instead just as an experiement. I'll be anxiouly tracking their performance and lifespan on your car.

What about rolling the fenders? Flaring them out. Other than that, I couldn't imagine the frustration of rubbing.

Er, on closer look... you're going to rub like a mad man in the rear.

Since first seeing this thread and having the realization that someone local actual has the "G-Force" tires on their S2000, I keep looking at my Kumhos. I keep seeing the word and saying it over and over again in my mind and all I can think of is something that belongs in the sex-trade industry.
KUM - HO ............... KUM - HO ................ KUM - HO ................. KUM - HO.
I would much rather be driving on something that has a "Manly man's" name like "G-FORCE" than on girlie-man tires like Kum-hos.
Oh well, I guess I'll just have to burn these things off and get something more masculine next time.

Kumho is great. Sounds like a really classy hooker's name!

I'm convinced after 2 weeks of riding on these cheap hookers that they're not worth the saving. I'm going back to S02 once I bang these to the ground or find a new John for them.
