Post Bf Goodrich G-Force T/A KD or KDW

These tires are a pretty good price at around $110 a piece.. Are they worth it? I'm just looking for a decent mix between handling and traction at a good price.. Nitto 555r's seemed a lil too much.. How do the G-force's do in the mix of things? Any comments from owners? Tread-wear, handling, wet traction, dry traction, looks?

Thanks!!

I have the T/A KD's, and they are sticky as hell! I don't know how they perform in the wet for I don't drive my car in the rain. I think the KDW or the KDWS would be better suited for your needs, for these tires were designed for dry and wet traction,(KDW) and I believe the KDWS is an all season tire. The T/A KD is designed for maximum dry traction and has significantly less tread than the other 2 tires mentioned.
