True. I was comparing them to the KDW line.

I have heard and read the tread block pattern of the KDW2 is a bit superior to the KDW. The one test I saw looks to substanciate that but I have no personal experience.

Eiher way for the price the Sport is outstanding and probably untouchable.
I have the Falken on my list because of their great traction. I would give up some tread life for traction.

Sorry to resurrect a fairly old post, but I just got a set of these and wanted to chime in.

Got the gForce Sports put on yesterday ($80 from Tirerack) and so far I am very impressed. Back to the OEM feel of the KDW, but with less noise and should have slower wear. I am coming off of a set of Kumho 712's, which are total crap, so anything would seem better probably. Overall, a very good compromise of price/performance.
