with my budget, ive narrowed my choices down to these 3 tires

BFG G-force sport,
Kuhmo Ecsta SPT
Falken FK-452

these will see daily driving in the summer, and occasional track time...

opinions?

I've heard that the Falken's are very good street tires for the price.... not positive though...

I had a set of the BFG g-Force Sport and loved them. They're a great street tire. I put a set on (255/50/16) to replace my old Bridgestone Potenza RE71s, and the BFGs were far superior in traction, ride and handling. Very rarely had either tire in the rain so I can't comment on that.

the tirerack.com has rating on tires. This may help with your decision.

I had a set of Kuhmo Ecsta SPT on my 2002 GT mustang. Drove the car nearly 40,000 miles on a set of Dunlop's before replacing them with the Kuhmo's. I was pretty disappointed in the Kuhmo Ecsta SPT's and wouldn't recommend them. Just my opinion.
