BFG KDW2 on Ronjons??

Jus got my BFG KDW2 shipped to me for my ronjons. Is anyone running these tires on any kind of 18 inch rim? I have them on my accord but in 17 and they look beefy!
Post a pic if u can........tired of blowing tires on these NY streets. I went from 235/40/18 (hankook) to 245/40/18 (BFG).
If no one is currently running these tires i guess ill be the first to post pics of it when i get mine!

Found this post. I've been running BFG kdw's for now 3 summers (about 26000 miles), 245/40/18 on Enkei LM-1S w/40 offset. Here are some recent pics, waiting for my RonJon Legend wheels next week.









Car is on stock suspension (till tomorrow), one thing is that these tires are loud. Next year I'm going for the g-force Sport tire. Same width, same heighth, quieter tread pattern. I talked to one guy about the difference between the 2 and he said the Sport aren't as high performance track-wise, but still a good performance tire ( he owns an EVO VIII that he autocrosses). PM me if you need anymore info.

Thanx man. Ive been running them for a couple days now and i love them! I have the same tires on my boosted accord but that car aint quiet so i never hear the tires. These tires are much better than my previous hankooks that kept blowing with these NYC streets. I took some pics and will post as soon as i get out of work.
Thanx again guys.

I'm praying I get them in time. Weather shows rain on Friday and Sunday, just a 30% of scattered rain on Saturday. That pretty much is like Michigan, which means no rain.

I really like my Bridgestone Potenza RE 050A Pole Position 245/40/18" Great in the rain and the dry. Not noisy and boy they get sticky.
