They get meaner as you subtract the letters. ;)

KDWS = ok
KDW = better
KDs = best


:D


The KDs have huge tread blocks on the outside half.

KD(ry) is for dry traction only.
KDW(et) is for dry and wet traction
KDWS(now) if an all-weather tire, good for snow.

The NT stands for New Tread. They have an old design and a new one.

KDWS was ok, but great treadwear and all seasons. If I had to a go all season again, I might get these, but never did get any snow/ice to try them in.

The NT tires remind me of swamp thing for some reason. TT (Traditional Tread) is where it's at, imo.

I have the NT, and well I'd say you're DEAD WRONG;)

The NT is awesome, excellent dry traction, and I am able to keep the car straight in the rain, well if I don't use to much of the loud pedal anyways....:p

Definitely much better than the original tread:cool: Except you'll need 18" rims to fit the correct size:alert:

Are you asking us if they still make them? If so, BFG does not list a "KD" model on their website any more. They have realigned their tire names a bit over the years.

And since this thread is now 2-1/2 years old, I'm not sure how important it is :D
