Toyo vs. BF G. vs. Falken

[BVH VW Tuner]

ok guys, need new tires to get ready for the tail' and need opinions. i narrowed it down to three...
BF Goodrich g-force T/A KDW NT http://www.1010tires.com/tire.asp?tirebrand=BFGoodrich&tiremodel=g%2DForce+T%2FA%AE+KDW+NT

Toyo Proxes 4 http://www.1010tires.com/tire.asp?tirebrand=Toyo&tiremodel=Proxes+4

Falken FK-452 http://www.1010tires.com/tire.asp?tirebrand=Falken&tiremodel=FK%2D452

Any tires i end up choosing will be 225/45/17's
I would probably be happy w/ any one of them but i really just want to hear what every1 has to say about each tire and if any1 has a preference. And dont be biased,lol.

i looked at thos too, hows the treadwear doing on yours?

[mk4gtiboy]

340, i have had mine for 3k and so far so good. hook up sick on dry, feel solid on wet roads, also i rip on them and they aren t looking too bad

I just bought a set of the nitto neogen, 280 treadwear and great stick. You want to stay below 300 treadware if you want to get a good performance tire. I know someonewith a 337 with kumhos on it with a 280 treadware and he got 40,000 miles on them with regular rotation, and thats 18's, and he still get great street grip.

wow, working at discount tire co. for a year i heard nothing but bad things about khumos. thats pretty cool considering how cheap they are, what model were they?

[vw Neo]

different companies use different scales when determing treadwear. "Treadwear rating" is a relative term. Don't be sucked in by crazy high numbers.

Customer feedback usually is the best but who knows if these people have any clue to what the hell they're talking about....:rofl:

Personally, I'd get Toyo. That decision comes from a decent amount of research on-line. Regardless of what you get, be sure to let us know YOUR experiences.....;)

Right now, I'm running Hankooks because they are HELLA cheap...

The KDW's will tend to get noisy after about 10k miles...almost sound like a wheel bearing going after that time. Then again the noise might be attributed to me tracking the car and running for almost 3 hours...

well autox quite regular so i pretty muck know whats good for track. I know as a general referance that the smaller # treadware the more traction example ( falken azines 615's 200 treadware STS superstar, but would maybe get a few 1000 miles on the street.) vs ( riken rapters <-- no name crap brand the dealership gave me when I bought the car, 300+ treadware horriable grip straight line and cornering.) vs ( my nitto neogens alot better grip than rikens but I wouldnt say as good as azines by far.), and I could get started into my 100 treadware r compounds but we need not go there. You dont have to take my word for this but for the most part I know what im talking about since I choose my tires wisely for racing on a national level, but I know that everyone has their opinion. And by far I dont know everything.
