I had BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 and they were very grippy on dry. Stiff sidewalls for very good cornering. Tended to wander on highly traveled roads. Rain performance and braking left a little to be desired. Got VERY loud towards the end of tread. Moved to Nitto Neo Gen for all season performance. Have been very happy with this tire's price/performance. The sidewall is not quite as stiff as the g-force, but I still am happy with cornering, wet, dry, and braking performance. I have not had it in snow really yet as I am in a southern state. I shopped for many months before going with these tires. Would have gone with Vredestein Sessanta if I were doing strictly summer tires. Hope this helps.

I just bought some enkei 18 inch rims and the Hankook ventus 235-40-18s to match with 200 treadwear. The tires were $89 each on closeout and rims were enkei racing rp03 for $299 each. Pretty good deal if you want some spring and summer fun with the car.
