general grabbers is what i am running. i love them. i have never tried the kdw's so i won't say they are bad. but for the price i paid for my uhp's. i'll be buying these again. i won't look at another tire..

thats true about the price difference seems like they are a great value. i didnt know i could order them from discount so i guess its water under the bridge, if im not satisfied with the gforce maybe ill give them a try but from what i hear both tires are top notch

I'm not trying to cause you to defend you purchase....I'm just not all that impressed with the KDW's (especially for the price!!). for the cost of 2 KDW's I can buy all 4 Grabbers (I would have but I really didn't have an option, it was either the 24hr fix-it ticket or the exibitionism ticket for roasting my tires at a red-light....the tires were cheaper than the exibitionism ticket)

looks like i may be cancelling the gforce in favor of general UHP's because wel they are almost as good rep wise and half as expensive....

grabbers
I have the grabbers on my truck and have been really pleased with them. Although mine are 305/40/22's. They have about 18000 miles on them and are all wearing very evenly and still have good tread left.

ok so the thing about the grabbers i was reading and people have gotten about 10% less fuel economy with them so that throws a spin into the plans...who knows what i'll do, i already get 12 MPG and about to find out how bad the converter is going to hurt me
