Hey gang, as many of you know I am upgrading to KDs. I found these on ebay and wanted to wait until I got mine before recommending. They are $649 for a set of four (normally $1076 at Tirerack) because they are "blems" - cosmetic imperfections that do not affect performance or durability.

The ones I received are excellent, got them in three days. The store is the wheel exchange, here's the link on ebay, I just called them directly and ordered. I think they have about 4 sets left.

Hope this helps.

Sorry for digging into your message Rich.Hopefully I was able to clean up the link

Sounds like a great deal! When are you going to have them installed?

You're going to love those tires! They grip like you can't believe both out of the hole & in cornering, plus they look awesome on the car. IMO, the stance of the car looks totally different with these tires.
My salesman tried to talk me out of spending the extra money on them when I ordered my car, but it was totally worth it & my car will never have any other tire on it.

Hi there!
I'm still running the original set of KD's that Mike put on at 7,000 miles! I'm now at 40,000 (it's my daily driver!)
I'm gonna be needing another set and I certainly don't mind "blems", but the shipping, seing as how I'm on the "left" coast, looks like a problem.
I can vouch for the fact they are awesome on the road!!! Even if I had to pay full price, I'd take the KD's over whatever else!

It was less than $30 to ship the pair to me, so even if you double that you save over $300. Give them a call, they were nice guys to deal with.

I missed out on the KD's from Wheel Exchange. Anyone know of any other BFG dealers who might have "blems"?
