Default BFG KDW replacements

Been running this tire for the lifetime of my car in oem sizes.
loved them as it was the perfect compromise for the Florida weather, tread wear and traction. but they are now discontinued.

Those who ran this tire, what is/would be replacement?

we are living in the golden age of street tire technology now. Plenty of great street tires are avaliable out there. You just have to do your own research and reading since there aren't much "exact" OEM size avaliable at this moment but they are extremely close.

Last year I ran BFG Rival with OE height and width in the back but they stopped making the 295/18. I switched to Hankook RS3 in 285 this year but the section width is less than 1/8" off mounted on the same wheel. I've seen 275 size Dunlop Z2 is just as wide.
Wait and see what B-stone going to offer in RE71R, they MIGHT make our size.
