BFG KDW IIs - tread pattern question
Ok, have you seen that Seinfeld episode where Jerry meets the girl and she looks really hot until she gets in a certain light and then looks bad? I am having the same relationship with my KDWs.
While I think the tread pattern is pretty awesome and they handle and grip great there are times when I am walking up to my car and I just don't know when I will get used to the look. My co-worker summed up what I was feeling the other day at work when he asked me if I had snow tires on the vette. Ugh.
I am just wondering if there are any other KDW II owners out there who went through a similiar experiance as they got used to the new look. I imagine the GS-3 and Nitto Invo owners had the same type of experiance since those patterns are quite a departure from "the norm".
Anyone else? I can't be the only **** crazy one on here.
Not that is matters but my setup is 275/35/18-18x10, 295/35/19-19x11 on CCW SP500s.

They look like flames, kinda cool. I have the D3's and love the pattern.

Plus once you start to rack up the miles on them they get noisy.
