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.

Second Set

Just bought my second set of these tires. Got 65000 miles on the first set. They are a little noisy at highway speeds but the traction and wearability are worth the small inconvenience. Traction is very important with living in the Great Lakes snow belt .

Very happy

Very quiet compared to the Mitchell that was previously on my 2016 equinox. Maximum psi on the tire says 44 PSI The information panel on the door suggest 35 psi max The side wall looks a little mushy can I inflate tires to a higher 40 psi ???? Thank you

Mike58, if your Advantage Control tires are the same size as the original equipment tires that came on your vehicle, it is recommended to use the pressure recommendation on the door jamb. If they are a different size than those tires originally equipped on your vehicle, we would suggest that you contact our team at 866-866-6605 to discuss.

Bad Gas Mileage

I bought these tires because the original tires cost a little more than I could afford. The BF Goodrich tires were next best tires down from the original that dealer had in my size. I first thing that I notice were how quiet these tires are compared to the original. But down side is my gas mileage went down 2-3 mpg. And I'm losing air pressure, I don't know if its the tires or some other issue. As for traction, little less than the originals, needs more steering input and the rear wants to come around more. The tires feel heavier and looks taller. The ride is comparable to the originals.

Itsme, we recommend having the tires inspected by a BFGoodrich retailer, preferably the selling dealer, to determine if there is an air loss or if it is due to cooler temps. We suggest that you call us at 866-866-6605 from the dealer's store. Regarding the MPG, new tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires. As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases. Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve.

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.

excellent ride comfort

I replaced noisy tires that had about 50k miles on them. The new Advantage Control tires were not only much quieter, the gave a much smoother ride than the previous set did. They seem to be very good under wet driving conditions, but I have yet to drive them in winter conditions. Even my spouse noticed the difference in theses tires!

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.

Amazing tire for the price!

I bought these tires about 2 weeks ago and they are amazing! I cannot believe how smooth the ride they are and there is a little bit of a road noise but it's not enough to really even count. At highway speeds they are very smooth very comfortable. I am so glad I went back to BF Goodrich!

Best Tires, bar none!

I've been a fan of BFG tires for over ten years. Any time I have gotten a new or different vehicle, regardless of the tires on it, I have always put BFGs on. The Advantage Control is likely the best tire on the market for comfort, durability, reliability, and multi-surface traction in any weather. I replaced my current vehicle tires at 39000 miles and the difference in steering and handling was immediate. It's as if its a whole new ride. Whenever someone asks me what kind or brand of tire to get, I always say BF Goodrich! It's the only way to go!

First set was purchased April 13 and I complained about the road noise. Within warranty, second set was put on. After driving a few weeks the road noise is the same on the second set. Tires are advertised has smooth, quiet ride. Mine are noisy and I hear the road noise constantly. Not at all satisfied.

PAC93, we're sorry to read of this noise complaint. If the noise on the 2nd set didn't begin for several weeks, it is possible that an irregular wear pattern has created the noise. A member of our team will be in touch to work with you and your retailer on a solution.
