Reviews: BF Goodrich 245/50ZR16 Tire, g-Force Sport - 13737

"Acquired (4) to replace an all-season Goodyear RSA on an '09 G8 GT RWD. Markedly better cornering on any surface at high speed except gravel or snow of course. The Comp-2 I'm sure is capable on a track but for me superb on dry city streets or ramp cornering, braking. Excels on wet pavement. Comp-2 has a UTQG rating of 340 AA A which is higher than the norm in this class. In independent testing ranked higher than Potenza, Firehawk and Yoko. Keep the Winters for November-April and get these for Summer. I doubt you'll be disappointed."

Mounted these on 2004 Mustang (Convertible) replacing my winter studded tires. First thing I noticed was major road/tire noise. This car had structs replaced (all four wheels) and an alignment six months ago. So I had an alignment performed. Minor adjustment, they did not find any other issues. Still the noise. Handling is great. I live in the mountains and find them a joy to drive on. Gas mileage off just a bit. I would recommend them with the caveat that the noise may not be acceptable in quiet running cars.

I did many comparisons with tires other than the factory OEM michelins that had NO MILEAGE WARRANTEE and worn out by 30k miles and over $225 each. So I wasn't replacing my tires with those. I found the G-Force Sports (discontinued now) and sport comp 2 (the replacement). the specs for performance matched or exceeded the michelins for much less cost. I bought a set in october and they performed great on dry and wet pavement, i was very impressed. Yesterday I had the last two michelins replaced with the sport comp 2 and expected really great performance in the snow and on ice. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN. These tire perform worse than the worn out michelins on snow and ice. Traction on ice ZERO! I am looking for replacement options for brand new tires. DO NOT BUY THESE TO USE AS ALL SEASON REPLACEMENTS IF YOU LIVE IN AN AREA WITH SNOW AND ICE. These perform great for dry and wet pavement ONLY.

This is a very good dry road tire, holds it's own in the corners. It seems to do ok on wet roads, but I have not had to test it yet. The only thing I really dislike is the noise, when I bought them I was told that they were quite. They are not. High speed they are ok. But driving around town they are loud. Other than the noise they are great tires.
