Hey guys, finally got the tires! Went ahead and purchased the BF Goodrich G-force KDW's 285/60/18. The tread life isnt all that great but I'll just slap the stock rims on for winter tires...which here in Texas amounts to about 2 months...Anyways, thanks for all the help, enjoy the pics, lemme know whatcha think..

Havent had any rain yet, but I hear they're amazing in the wet. Dry traction has been very good. It grips turns much better but the handling is a little less responsive than i'd like. I think front/rear sway bars can fix that easily. plus its that 11.2" wide tire up front. the weight of the tires/wheels is enough to notice a decrease in power. I'm sure mpg's have dropped a tad as well. A diablo tuner and maybe a cold air kit will be my next upgrades...Brakes too
