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

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!

Joie Chitwood Approved!

I’m not planning on doing any stunt driving, but if I do, I know these BF Goodrich will handle the job. These may be the best tires I’ve ever driven on. Grip, handling, smoothness, cabin noise is very low! Waiting to see how they perform in the snow; they have a high rating & you can tell by driving on them!

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 .

TWO TIRES DIDN’T EVEN LAST 10,000 MILES I COULD SEE THE bald part of the tire right down the center just like the complaint before me. I bought them on Nov 29 2021 had them balanced, and have only driven about 9-10K miles. I picked them because they were highly rated in the rain and snow and had decent tread life. They are for my child who mostly drives back and forth to school. Both front tires look exactly like his pics. Back ones are fine and have deep tread.

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.

Outstanding tire

I have had 4 different major brands of tires on this car since it was new.. All had poor traction on dry and wet pavement. They all had a stiff ride with lots of slap on the road tar strips. They all had issues with tracking even with perfect alignments. This new Advantage Control is amazing. First thing I noticed was the car tracked absolutely perfect. Then I noticed in heavy rains I had no hydroplaning . Then I saw Dry traction was improved. This is an area that had always been a problem with the light front end of the Camry. Finally a big bonus was how quiet the tire is. The tire absorbs bumps in the road that all other tires could shake my teeth, All this and near total removal of the slapping sound on tar strips. I have yet to try this tire on snow or ice or check for tread wear, but so for this has been the best tire I have ever owned and I have tried a lot of tires over the 25 years I owned an auto repair facility

Excellent tires

I bought these when they first came out a few years ago. Immediately, they super quiet relative to competitors. Excellent traction in wet and light snowfall conditions. Price was decent, too. Only gripe is they are hard to get, they have to be ordered, they are never in stock anywhere. They have been the best tires I have ever bought!!!

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!

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.
