Agreed... but the KDW 2's are a very good tire especially for the money as well.

I have heard complaints about them being loud, but I have personally run tehse several times because I actually really like the tire, if you do get them and you have your windows down all the time, or listen to music a bit louder than the normal person does, you're absolutely fine.

Just as a side note, my windows are always down (unless raining heavily) and the music is always on (not extremely loud - but enough to hear it ).

I personally would probably try out the Nittos as I have heard great things about them though.

We've had the opportunity to try Nitto's NT-05 tires and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and performance of the car after the upgrade. Having driven on PS2's, Pole Positions and the NT-05's all within the last 12 months, I would say that these are a wonderful addition to the list of "max performance" tires on the market out there. I can definitely say, that with NT05's I'm definitely burning way more gas than before and taking corners faster than I really should be. Remember, when shopping for tires, everyone should take into consideration what they want... ride quality? longevity? performance? Its not possible to have everything.
