If the BFG tires you are thinking about are the KDW 2's  you might want to ask around .... the folks I've talked to are not to impressed  with them . Seems they have a bad rep for irregular wear issues .  Take a look at the 295/30/22 ZR  Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta Tires . I just order 4 of them on Ebay.

Damn... I talked to a few people and they said they were like glue for dry conditions and only downfall would likely be a set of winter tires needed...

#4 on the list of ultra high performance tires at Tirerack.com

Looks good to me.  But yeah, stay in the dry more often than not.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

BFG''s your looking at are  a high traction summer tire that may be alright for you in NJ where you dont have to deal with the regular HIGH summers temps we have in OK  .  REGULAR DRIVING in sustained high heat may be a contributing factor in the irregular wear issue I was talking about.

Hmmm.  Is it possible that the KDW 2's use a softer compound to be stickier, more like drag radials?  That could definitely leave more rubber on the road in extreme heat.  The one thing in the reviews that was of particular concern to me was the noise level.  So used to having quiet tires now (first the DWS's, now the Nitto's).
