I know everyone’s in winter tire mode but wondering if anyone has any experience with these BFG TAKD’s. I bought a set late last year and I should be ready to paste these on early summer. I would like a little more traction than I’m getting from my Sumitomo HTRZ III’s that came on the car. Found sporadic reviews on line but not a lot. One site claimed the KD stood for “killer dry” performance. Wet performance is supposed to suck but that’s not important to me. Anyone have first hand experience with these?

First hand, no. But it’s a street tire, they are all similar… just balance wet traction vs price vs wear.

I don’t think these were around for long. For this size and type of tire I think I got a good deal. Don’t really expect tremendous wear out of performance tires. The KDW reviews were much easier to find.
