They are among some of the best drift tires, that also double as street tires. Extremely stiff sidewalls. Can't wait to use them.

They look like BFGoodrich g-Force KDW2's -- at least from the tread pattern.

We will know for sure by this weekend! It is installed however, and my tuner says the build quality is decent. Haven't been able to turn the car on yet though lol. Still have to install the new ECU.

Damn, I can't wait to see this one running. It's that much sweeter that the shop is right down the road.

Please be awesome. Please be awesome. Please be awesome...

It's going to be an interesting sound fight between the full exhaust and the waste gate battling it out.

Yeah, that'd be great. I had planned on vinyl-wrapping the BRZ but I can put that off.

Just tell Dave that I was one of the guys willing to donate their car for R&D... perhaps that will sway him.
