For another$8 a tire, I'd look seriously at the Potenza S-03s. While I liked the ride and performance of the KDW, the noise bugged the hell out of me!
The S-03 is a much quieter tire and out performed the KDW in every catagory according to Tirerack.
For me there was no option to buy the KDWs again, and the price has gone down on these since I bought them! I paid $156 each. I know there are a few others here using them.
