BF Goodrich tires

My tires would not pass inspection and winter is approaching, so I finally gave in and bought new tires. I went to a local reputable dealer after doing my research to determine which tires were best and met my needs. Working with the dealer, we agreed that these tires were the best for my car. I am pleased with the tires and anticipate them lasting many years.

Excellent tires, quiet, handles great

I bought these tires for my 2014 Chevy Traverse. These tires replaced a set of Cooper tires. I immediately noticed the BF Goodrich tires were much quieter and handled better. So far I’ve put over 600 miles in a couple weeks and the tires have performed well.

Stay Away!!

Purchased 10/04/2021, 2 yrs 3 months and 55,000 miles later they are trashed. Balanced and rotated every 7,500 miles. Inside and outside sidewall is cracked and some parts the tread it completely lifting off the tire. It's a Ford Fusion so I'm not towing or doing anything crazy. Super disappointed in BFGoodrich. Will never buy again. This could have easily caused a major accident with my family in the car if I would of had a blowout on the interstate.

Good Tires

I have BFG tires on my Mustang and I have been very happy with them. These BFG tires are replacing Michelin tires on my Toyota Avalon. I have only used these tires for a week and these tires are as quiet as the Michelin tires were and performance has been as good. All in all this has been as great purchase.

I’ve put about 1000 miles on these tires my fuel mileage had dropped. I feel like they find a line in the road and try to follow it makes the car feel very unstable at times. I feel like they sacrifice comfort and efficiency for longevity. Also noticed that they turn gray. I had to wash them several times to clean it off. They aren’t as quiet as they say I think they are loud.

Love my new tires!

I bought these tires from Belle Tire a week a go and have about 500 miles on them and have driven on dry, wet, and now just yesterday in the fresh new snow. In all conditions I have enjoyed the ride. Smooth, quite for the most part, and most of all very happy with the traction!

Not a good value in the long run

I have driven over 1000 miles  on these tires in my gas-based sedan. This is the third set of tires on this vehicle, the second BF Goodrich, but they are clearly not as good as the last BF ones - I am disappointed.  I purchased them in Feb in the northeast and have driven through rain, snow, ice, and even a few perfect days with unusually warm weather. I commute 50 hwy miles to work and also do a lot of neighborhood driving with my kids. While the tires seem safe in all conditions (braking was good) I am finding that they handle just OK.  But the main reasons I cannot recommend these tires are because my mpg has decreased noticeably, and they require me to apply more gas to get up to speed. When entering highways I have to push so hard it not only stresses my engine but it’s starting to make my leg sore.  I calculated my fuel spending. Over the life of these tires I will pay waaaay more than I would have, if only I bought a set of more expensive tires with better mpg. But now I am paying extra for these “just ok” tires.  Don’t make the same mistake I made - I hope this helps.

1st Car tire from BFGoodrich

Bought these tires mostly because it was within budget and from a brand I've known in the off-road world. They seem to be better than the OEM firestones FR740? But they were Old to begin with (9yrs). So far dry performance is decent.. Good Control, Cornering traction, Response but a bit heavier to accelerate though just because they are wider than stock from 185/55r16 to these 205/50r16. We’ll see in the long run how they perform.. especially on the next winter season.. they seem to be siped well. They’re not directional or asymmetric but not sure if that matters

I needed tires and am happy with the ones I purchased

I bought these tires because I was scared about my previous ones. These ones make me feel better. They do start a little loud (which new tires have a tendency to do that). These are good quality tires for a decent price too. I am posting this before too much ware has been put on them too (bought and placed on 1/21/25 and it's 1/24/25 as I type this now.)

Excellent bad weather traction

I decided to try this tire because it had some better ratings than others for snowy conditions. I replaced a set of Goodyear Eagle RSA tires with these on a 2012 Mazda 3. After 4 months and a couple of snowstorms, time for a review. The tires are a bit softer and have more slide-slip than the Eagle RSA had, took me a little time to adjust to the dry pavement feel when making a lane change maneuver. They just react to input a smidge slower. There is a little extra tire noise which I notice on wet pavement, but not enough to complain about, it is just there as a result of the tread design. There was a definite improvement in traction on snowy and even wet roads in comparison to the Eagle RSA tire. Living in Michigan, this was a big positive. The only other negative was a 1 MPG decrease in my fuel economy over the Eagle RSA tires. When from an average of 35 to 34 MPG on my weekly commute when averaged over a few months. I assume this is due to a softer tire compound increasing the rolling coefficient of friction. Given the improved traction in bad weather, I can live with this.
