poor wet performance, avoid buying

Had installed a month ago. Performance has been terrible whenever the roads are wet. Not pouring rain wet, but just any moisture on the road, at moderate temperatures the tires will spin and slip. Worse in colder weather. Very disappointed in these tires and concerned for safety of driving on them.

Loud Tires! Really Loud!

Just bought a set of 4 BF Goodrich Advantage Control tires 10 days ago, and these are so loud. Like on the drive home, I thought something was up with the transmission of my car, but then I realized the noise would only increase with tire speed. They look good, and the tread looks fantastic, but the noise is so loud that is really detracts. Last week I bought of set of Michelin Defenders for my other vehicle, and they are super quiet, like truly quiet. I'm starting to regret my purchase with these.

Worst tire I've ever owned.

Only have a few thousand miles on these tires. As soon as the MN winter hit I've already had a few close calls as they lose all traction. These are by far the worst tires I've ever owned in any sort of snow or icy condition. These are going right in the garbage as soon as I can get back in and get something else put on. They are not worth losing my life over.

Poor wear out performance

I bought 4 of these tires for my Honda pilot in 2023. Since then I drove 26110 miles and the tires are worn out. I rotated them every 6k miles, had the tires rebalanced each time and had an alignment done as soon as I had them installed. So, I was supposed to get 50k out of them and got a little more than 1/2. Poor performance in my opinion.

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.

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 .

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.

Verified Purchase

Best Tires I've Ever Owned.

These tires offer great traction and long wear. These replaced a set just like them that had 89,500 miles on them.

World of Difference!

These tires have made a world of difference so far. We have only had them on for 2 days but have seen significant improvement.
