I can't believe you put a goodyear tire that high on your list.

The only thing I've ever complimented a goodyear tire on is longevity. Other then that I have never had what I would call a "good" performing goodyear tire.

I would list the KDW up near the top based on performance alone. They do not last any noticable amount less then a comparable high performance tire. Their main "con" is a very high road noise. I do not care about NVH in a pseudo performance car anyway.

I would list the S-03/S-02 at or near the top as well. Performing as good as or near the KDW. A few even say a little better. However for the price difference it's a push a best.
Now with the G-Force Sport line being compared above the KDW line by several respected testers that would IMO push it well above the Bridgestone since it's price point is awesome for a high performance tire of it's caliber.

My other tire contender is Falken ZIEX 512. Great all around performance, typical fast tire wear, and a very nice price point. They were top on my list until I started reading some of the G-Force Sport reviews. Now those 2 are the top 2 with Bridgestone pretty much out of view based on it's steep price point and similiar performance.
