Bfgoodrich g force comp 2 snow6/30/2023 ![]() As the tread blocks wear off, this mark might become aligned with the tread surface and you can see it by looking between the treads. Treadwear markings can tell you about the remaining tread life of the tire since BFGoodrich included a TWI indicator between the treads. So, you can get a high-performance tire capable of great all-season traction, and make it last for 3 or 4 years with these beauties! Maintenance indicators According to the US Highway Administration, that’s at least treble the mileage that an average US driver passes per year. You should be able to get at least 45,000 miles out of these before having to replace them with a new set. So, you can’t expect too much from G-Force Comp-2, but the tire still gives you considerable mileage for the category. Truth being said, the tread life of high-performance AS tires isn’t as long as one of the regular all-season tires. That’s why they can easily fit on muscle cars and sporty sedans, as there’s just a single speed rating level above one of G-Force Comp-2 tires. So, these tires won’t let you down in this category, as they can handle speeds up to 168mph thanks to their “W” speed rating. ![]() It’s a mark that specifies the maximum speed limit that tires can reach without losing their safety properties or noise isolation. If you are driving a performance coupe or sedan, you are probably aware of the concept of tire speed ratings. Even wet cornering is impressive with these high-performance tires, and there’s no sliding even as you tackle wet corners at higher speeds. You won’t have to worry about hydroplaning, which is when your vehicle loses ground grip under a layer of water on the road. From V-shaped tread grooves that spread in different angled directions, to reinforced tread blocks for higher stability, these tires bring it all. Of course, driving at high speeds also requires proper safety features, and BFGoodrich made sure to include quite a few. With the G-Control sidewall inserts, you’ll get an extra boost for making swift turns as the tread blocks slightly spread on the sidewall of the tire as well. The Performance Racing Core system brings additional cornering stability to the table, and the wide shoulder blocks add up to it in all weather conditions. On the other hand, the internal structure of the tires is uniquely designed with two internal steel belts that are intertwined in nylon to give you that additional bit of support and stability at higher speeds. You still get a great water dispensing system without losing on the ground contact patch surface that gives you optimal performance on dry roads. With the V-shaped tread grooves, BFGoodrich didn’t only reduce the hydroplaning risk, but also managed to make a perfect balance between dry and wet traction. It sounds like a lot to process, but we’ll explain how these features add up to your overall driving performance. Here are some of the main features that the manufacturer utilized in tire production: Since we will be discussing many categories in this review, we have provided the following links for your convenience.The tread pattern of these tires alone makes them unique, and you can see how BFGoodrich wanted to make them optimized for higher speeds and all-season traction. Simply put, we do not expect their rankings in the Ultra High-Performance All-Season Tires segment (11th and 6th, respectively) to change significantly. That said, the two tires we will analyze have over 10 million reported miles, which makes their ratings extremely reliable. Statistically, the more miles reported, the more "stable" the ratings are, which is another way of saying that they are reliable enough to draw conclusions from them. Why is this important? Because the reliability of the ratings is directly related to those numbers. The ratings we will discuss in the following sections are based on the number of miles reported by users. Have you ever wondered how reliable tire ratings are? No? Well, you should. ![]() Performance Rating: COMP-2 A/S vs ExtremeContact DWS 06 ![]()
