Default Those with BF KDW's

Any of you guys running KDW's experiencing road noise.

I have had mine for just about 7000 miles, and they are starting to get really noisy.

Normally occurs once I hit 60 mph and up.

I am curious to see if anyone else is experiencing this.

While we're on that topic... how are those tires? Can you compare them to any others? (Stock S-02's, S-03's, RE095, Fuzion)

it's actually [two finger quote] Wheels and Tires [/two finger quote] not "Tires & Wheels"


anyways, with a radical tread that the bfg kdw's have, you can expect tire noise on the freeway/higher speeds.

Driv300mph, the tires are awesome, except for my little issue with tire noise. The tread pattern looks awesome on my 18inch ssr gt3's, they are wearing very nicely, barely any noticeable wear after 6000 miles, and they grip very well, not nearly as good as the s02's but thats to be expected going from a soft tire to a tire with a 300 treadware rating. Overall I recommend them, they are just a little noisy at speed.
