Too soon to tell

I’ve had these tires installed on my VW R32 for only a week now, but I purchased them a month ago. I try very hard to get the best that I can afford. I’m frugal like that. I needed new tires for my daily driver. I commute about 100 miles a day. Five days a week. The route is paved & reasonably smooth concrete & asphalt. I live in the Midwest. So I needed an all season with as much performance as I could afford. After quite a bit of research & comparisons I chose the BF Goodrich G Force Comp2 Plus. My research sources were “The Tire Rack”, “Discount Tires Direct”, & other respected independent reviews & tests. While I do read/view some boards & videos posted by everyday “Joes”, like myself. I always take them with a large pinch of salt. This isn’t the newest tire on the market. Nor is the best tire in it’s class. However, for my needs & budget, it was exactly what I was looking for. I have owned other BFG performance tire pressure on similar vehicles in the past & I’ve had positive experience with them all. This will be the first time I’ve had them on an all wheel drive though. So I’ll update my review when I have more experience with that. In the short period I’ve had them I’ve noticed a decrease in road noise compared to my last set. (Federal Tire) They seem quite responsive and confidence inspiring. Lastly, they look great.

Great All-Season Tire

I purchased this tire for my 2014 Scion FR-S after reviewing Consumer Reports. It is listed as an ultra high performance all-season tire and it really delivered in the snow. I did not want to own two sets of tires and the FR-S is my daily driver. They performed well on a snowy day, the bottom of the car was brushing against the unplowed road. In the summer they offer great grip and the sidewalls have really good stability. The sidewall of the tire looks different but it does to give stiffness to prevent blowout on low profile.

Excellent tires

I bought these roughly 5 yrs ago when I lived in Florida and they handle amazing compared to the factory tires they replaced. I do run higher psi in my tires(my preference) within the pressure marked on the side of the tire so the center of my tread has worn more then the rest but I'm very happy with the handling and performance these tires provided. I've put 38K miles on them and I'm going to get another set, I highly recommend. I plan on putting a set on my wifes care very soon.

Don’t Last

I put about 18k miles on mine before the centers are dangerously worn to be driving in winter and always made sure to inflate to manufacture specs but at very disappointed. Claiming all season is ridiculous since you can MAYBE get 1-2 safe winters out of these. After that I have been slipping around on a dusting of snow. Performance beyond that were good in the other seasons and cornered like a champ

G Force Comp 2 AS Plus

Just purchased the new G Force Comp 2 AS Plus tire absolutely incredible the handling the wet traction I live in an area with many flooded streets they go through the water as if you're in a boat water just streams away from the tires because of the directional tread pattern all I can say is incredible product and your slogan should be for this tire (drive with confidence) because the car feels like it's glued to the ground in any kind of weather hopefully will be all right in snow but mostly concerned with rain in my area great product recommending to everyone.

Looks Great

I have these for my BMW X1. I also have a set for my old Nissan Juke. They work great and look great on both. I also had an older g-Force model on my BMW 3-Series. I've always loved the look, especially due to the built-up bulky shoulder blocks, which helps to give them a super wide appearance. And they ride very well for the same reason. I don't know or worry about how well they work in snow because I have authentic, dedicated snow tires for that (which I need for South Dakota winters and which I recommend to everyone). But I consider these to be wonderful, cool-looking, three-season tires.

Unstable and Disconnected Feel

Installed these tires yesterday and immediately noticed a serious handling issue. At any speed and on all road surfaces, the car feels unstable — almost as if it’s floating. There’s a constant swaying or “squirrely” sensation that makes the car feel disconnected from the road. Steering feels vague and unpredictable; after turning in one direction, the car feels like it shifts drastically in the opposite direction, requiring correction. It also feels as though any sudden maneuver could upset the vehicle’s balance and cause it to veer uncontrollably. While adjusting tire pressures helped, the issue remains. I believe the sidewalls are overly soft, and that mounting them on the minimum recommended 6.5" rim may be contributing to the problem. For a performance all-season tire, this level of instability is disappointing and feels nearly unsafe.

Great cornering/quiet but sidewall design needs work!

Tires perform well on my 1998 TransAm. Cornering is precise and tires are quiet at speed. I have not been able to test them in wet weather yet but I am hopeful they will meet my expectations. My only negative about the tire is the sidewall design; specifically where the tread fades into the sidewall. This part of the tire looks like it should be on an off-road vehicle not a a performance car. I have the previous version of this tire on my 2002 TransAm and the aestheric portion of the design is much more appropriate than the newer iteration of the same tire. Overall, I am still very pleased with these tires.

Excellent tire for driving confidence

I have put about 15,000 miles on these tires. Yes they are a sport tire and expect a bit of noise. With all of the information out there do your research. I have so much driving confidence in these for dry and heavy rain conditions. I have not experienced any snow driving since they were purchased in June. I still have 7/32mm of tread left. Rotate your tires every 6,000 miles for maximum tread life.

Best For The Money!

Having run three sets of G-Force COMP-2 A/S since late 2016 on my 2013 Ford Focus ST, my review will be about that previous version of this tire and not the new "PLUS" model, which, coincidentally, I'm about to get a new set of. The COMP-2 A/S replaced the OEM tires on my Focus ST and totally transformed the way it drove, and in nothing but GOOD ways! Much better grip in the dry and wet, and alleviated the need for snow tires unless things got really nasty. For my Focus ST and driving style (Spirited), I've found the COMP-2 A/S will last a good two years in daily driving duties if mounted new in November or December, so you have maximum tread depth for the first Winter and driving in the snow. After Winter is over, I don't rotate the tires and just keep driving on them normally through Spring, Summer,and Fall, then rotate them just before the next Winter (November/December) so I have maximum tread depth on the front wheels for driving in the snow again. Remember, this is for my front wheel drive Focus ST and you may need to rotate the tires differently if your vehicle is rear or all wheel drive. I then drive the tires another year without rotating and by Fall or Winter of the second year all four tires are about equally worn, a few millimetres about the wear bars. For me, that's when it's time to get a new set of COMP-2 A/S but keep the old set to use for Autocross or Track Day driving as there's still plenty of tread for that and they're still excellent in the rain. Overall, in my humble opinion, this is an excellent Ultra-High Performance All-Season Tire and the best value for the money. You can easily get two to three Winter seasons when driven daily and even use them for several more years at track tires! What's there not to like about that? Well done, BFG, well done indeed!!
