BFG makes a pretty good performance tire but they have a lot of quality control issues so its pretty common for a tire not to balance correctly or always leak some air.

Those are a low-end budget performance tire with no stellar characteristics. Sorry :)
Don't talk about what you don't know about.

The Dunlop is on the level of the Advan Neova, but a fraction of the price. The Advan has probably the best dry grip of any street tire.

I have the KDW2's, I had the KDW"1"s on my last car. I thought for sure they dont even make the KDW"1"s anymore?

The KDW2s are a great compromise for dry and wet grip, and I'm very happy with mine.

Not the DZ101. The Direzza Sport Z1 is the good one, the DZ101 is a more "normal" tire.

PS. My stealth is sporting a set of the Direzza Sport Z1 Star Specs. I like them so far, haven't had any other performance tires, so I can't compare them to anything.

My Evo came with Kumho Ecsta MXs, and the Dunlop Z1s blow them out of the water.

HAHA you owned yourself. Do not tell me I don't know what I am talking about when it comes to tires, especially when you obviously don't have a clue and get two VERY different tires confused.

Yeah, I did. I was talking about the Dirrezza Sport Z1 or whatever, I was gonna get them but they were discontinued for a month or so until the new model came out, according to the tirerack guys on the SCCA forums.
