Here is a link to see the tire. http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/fin...v=false&cs=275 I need to replace the original eagles and 300 a tire is more than I want to spend plus I am not a goodyear fan (long story) and have always had luck with BFG tires. I don't race the car at all, it is a weekend cruiser. The ratings and reviews seem like it is a good tire but I want to know if anybody has run this tire on thier Camaro. Thanks.

I have those exact tires right now. I don't like them at all. Big tramlining issues, mediocre traction in all respects, vague feedback near the limits of traction.
The only advantages they have over my previous tire (Goodyear Eagle GS-D3 245/50R16, admittedly a summer tire) are:
1. Noise: they're notably quieter (but they are still not "quiet" by any means).
2. Tread life.
Do you drive the car in snowy/icy conditions? If not, don't bother with an all-season. A summer tire will be better.
The Goodyears had great traction, especially in the wet. They didn't tramline at all. However, those are the only good things I have to say about them. They are loud, and feedback at the limit is nonexistent.
My next tire will be one of the following:
1. Michelin Pilot Sport PS2
2. BFGoodrich g-Force TA KDW
3. Nitto NT05

I have the BFG g-force KDWs. they are very nice tires. not sure about the life I'll get out of them, they are still new yet. They seem to be going on a lot of high end cars in magazines, so they must be ok.

Does BFG even make the original g-Force KDW (I bought mine more than 9 years ago)??
Tire rack only lists the KDW 2 (listed on the BFG site as T/A KDW, but the one with the squiggly tread), the Sport, and Super-Sport A/S.

The original all-weather version was the KDWS

ahh yeah, those are the ones I have. sorry for the confusion. I never realized they had an older design. I don't buy tires all that often.

I also vote on the KDW's... I loved them on my car. Although they were not in the size you listed they performed great on my car.
