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.

Road vibration.

I'm very disappointed. You can feel all the road conditions. I felt driving on the not good condition paving road. Driver and passengers can felt vibration road noise all the time even well paving road. I did rebalance next day of installation but same road continuously vibration felt. I'm assuming that especially patterns design and bended middle two vertical lines made this kind of ride experience. I exchanged with Micheline tire the next day of installation on my Toyota Corolla even pay $200 more and no special sale price. I don't want to keep this tires for next few years with uncomfortable riding and road vibration.

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!

SOLID CHOICE

I’ve been rolling on these BFGoodrich all-season tires for a while now, and honestly, I’m really happy with them. They handle great in all kinds of weather—dry roads, rain, and even a bit of snow. Super stable and reliable. Traction is solid, braking feels smooth, and they seem to be wearing evenly, so I know they’ll last a good while. Plus, long drives are nice and comfortable—no weird vibrations or annoying road noise. If you want tires that are dependable, durable, and handle well year-round, these are a great pick!

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 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.

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.

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.

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.
