Tires and Steering Response
BF Goodrich KDWS g-Force. Awesome feedback through steering, you can feel the grain of the concrete and/or road surface through the steering wheel and your butt, vibrations and all. Very harsh and noisy ride. Car turns in very fast. Straight line acceleration grip quite good, but no match for RE01R.
Bridgestone RE01R. Best absolute grip. Very progressive. Steering isn't as quick in the turn in as the g-force. Ride is slightly improved while still being stiff. Tire is MUCH quieter. Wet road grip is not bad (not including standing water). Very good straight line acceleration grip.
Bridgestone RE92. These are the touring tires. Comfortable ride. Steering more numb than above tires. Quiet ride, but as tread wears, can get rumply on concrete roads. Poor straight line acceleration grip. Somewhat okay corner but causes car to plow more into the turn during initial turn-in. Lower cornering limits and grip, but progressive. Weak sidewalls fold under during very hard cornering.
