These tires are dangerous don’t buy!

I’ve had one blowout that destroyed everything. This tire was a year old only put 7116 miles on it. The one on the rear has three or 4 bubbles on the inside. Twice they have just gone flat and developed bubbles on the inner side wall when filled back up.

Best I’ve ever owned

I’ve owned several sets of these for my 85 and 86 Mustang with aftermarket 16 inch rims. Traction in the snow has always been an issue for these cars and not anymore with these tires. I was heartbroken to find out from my tire store my size has been discontinued, 245/50/R16. Performance 16” A/S tires ant near impossible to find.

Excellent Tread Design

The tread design of these tires make them particularly pleasant in a front wheel drive car. Linear tread designs have a tendency to pull a front wheel drive car off line, even when the wheels are perfectly balanced and aligned, which results in a persistent straight-line steering effort. The design of the tread in the Comp-2 A/S, on the other hand, results in a neutral feel, with the car both resisting straight-line drift *and* giving a very good sense of going precisely where you point. I will add that they seem to be pressure sensitive. My car is fairly heavy, and I experimented a bit with psi. There is a balance between grip, steering lightness, and noise that I think is ultimately personal, but I found a slightly higher pressure to be ideal for my daily driving. Overall, I've found the tire remarkably confident in both wet and dry conditions, smooth rolling, and reasonably quiet. Indeed, I can't think of another tire I've had that met these three criteria better.

Bad balancing, out of round.

All four of these tires are out of round after just 10k miles or so. Cannot balance even with tons of weight. I confirmed it's a tire issue by installing these tire on two sets of wheels, both sets of wheels yielded the same results on two separate balancers at two shops as well.

Not *perfect* but amazing all around tire for the price

No one tires is perfect at everything so my 5 star review is based on overall performance and cost compared to other UHP all seasons. There is a reason why Consumer Reports has this tied for THE best UHP all season, regardless of price, and it's a good 15% lower cost than its same corporate owned but different brand competitor. Pro's: VERY well rounded tire with good to very good performance in nearly every category; from winter performance as a non-winter tire, to wet and dry cornering and braking and ride quality. This is truly a UHP and not regular all season, a few reviewers who rated this tire down clearly bought the wrong category and shouldn't review a UHP tire for their non-performance boring sedans. This means compared to a regular or Touring all season, these are slightly louder and wear out a little faster, all 100% expected in a UHP all season, but FAR from annoying if you have a modern car that is in good condition with good alignment and non-worn out suspension. Ride is perfectly balanced, smooth and handling feels very stable and confident, it clearly rides more comfortably AND handles better than cheapie UHP all seasons I had previously. Con's: For a UHP all season, take off/launch traction and surprisingly hydroplaning is merely average, which is still acceptable for sure.. Still, overall, for a good 15% less cost than the top Ultra premium UHP all season tier, this easily competes with those in excellent all around performance and feel. Seems there does seem to be the rare "bad" one that won't balance well or wears out unevenly, just buy and have mounted at a shop you trust that also offers the rotating instant rebate deals that make these an awesome overall value.

Excellent all around daily race tire

Very good tire grip great and have decent life for how good the traction is lasted about 3years hard driving. These are comp tires meaning very soft and lots of grip which means they will not last as long as other harder tires. If you want daily tires for all year and all condition racing get these if you want a daily tire to replace the crap ones on your 100hp civic do not get these youll just cry they wear out faster than the junk hockypuck tires your used to.

Great tires

When I purchased these tires I wasn't sure what to expect as my 124 Spider has always been a fun ride with its original tires. With the g-Force tires it feels like it accelerates slightly slower, but it holds the corners like glue. It feels more stable in a straight line. Since I'm not drag racing I'll forgive the very slight acceleration difference for the enhanced handling in the curves and control. My car has always been setup as a convertible cruiser designed for the driving experience, an extension of the driver. These tires enable it.

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!!

Exceeded expectations

Bought these back in January or February. For starters, they were great in the snow and I couldn’t expect anything more from tires that aren’t winter tires because they exceeded my expectations in that department. Next, they are great in dry weather driving, I do not drive easily and like to take corners at high speeds and the tires work together with my car flawlessly to not disappoint. I have yet to slide or lose traction in any manner in rain. Yes, they wear a bit quickly (but honestly not even that quickly), but you’re getting a great tire for the price. Also, the grippier the tires, the quicker they wear, so don’t complain about tread wear on ultra high performance tires. You just look goofy lol. There’s a nice donut media video on tires, I suggest you watch it. My only “complaint” with them is their is a noticeable amount of road noise. Again, it’s not that bad and my car is known for having poor sound insulation. Honestly, it’s a great all around tire that far exceeded my expectations in every area. The only way you’ll get anything better in my opinion would be to have top performing summer and winter tires. They were also really beefy looking when I first got them and I liked how that looked on my car lol.

A Great All-Season Tire

In 2020 I purchased an '07 Shelby GT that had the original tires on it. Since it came with the g-Force COMP-2 A/S Plus, I decided to stay with the same tire. I have since put on 14,000 miles on the tires and have been very satisfied with the performance of these tires. The Shelby is my daily driver so it gets driven in all kinds of conditions: rain, snow, hot, cold, spirited driving, highway cruising, around town.
