    Hello everyone, a happy weekend to you all! I drove up to SF earlier this month on business and took the opportunity to scout a few cool locations and take some shots. Here a couple of my favorites, hope you enjoy!

    They are 245/30/20 BFGoodrich KDW v2. They sure do have a really mean looking tread pattern.

    Looking good!

    How do those tyres handle in the rain?
    My Falken Azenis RT615K are quite scary to drive in the rain.

    I love those tires.... stock on my SRT-4, and went back to them after my older Exclaims wore out.

    Thanks everyone!!! Tires are good in the rain, no issues at all. They have a pretty high tire wear rating though. I am probably going to go with the Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD08 on my next setup.

    The ones by the water are in Berkeley area in the backside parking lot by the pier. I was trying to find a good spot with water in the background with the sun pointing the right way before sunset during my drive up from SoCal. The ones in the dirt are from some random road off the 5 freeway, also on my drive up.

    Not up front, but my fenders are rolled nicely. It rubs in the rear just a tiny bit under full compression on the upper inside fender. Need to step down to 7 or 8 mm spacer instead of the 10mm all around that I'm running now. I have about 8mm of front brake clearance now, so there is room to go down to further reduce rubbing.

    These BFG KDW v2 tires are also have a larger sidewall than average, which I wanted as this was my first 30 series tire. Had I gone with a Falken or Nitto tire, I probably wouldn't have any rubbing in the rear.

    You were up in SF and didn't inform us SF folk? I are sad!
    When is your next trip up here? I'm down for a photo op if you want multiple Sazukas in the mix!
    Gorgeous pictures you've taken.
