Initial Review, 18,000 Miles on Tires
April 24, 2011

These tires have two thirds of the tread worn off. I have had the wheels balanced twice and have had a wheel alignment and the wheels were not out of alignment. Considering the price of these tires i would expect much more mileage. Otherwise I think the tires perform well. Previously I had another SUV of similar weight and went though 3 sets of Michelin tires with about 70,000 miles on each - my next set will be Michelins!

Initial Review, 15,000 Miles on Tires
April 24, 2011

Bought these tires when I was living in Florida. They went on the wife's car. First thing she told me after driving the car was that the steering is broken. The tires are inflated at the right PSI but they do make the car very jumpy. At times, if there are bumps in the road, you think you will jump in the next lane. It wasn't a big deal since the roads in Florida are very good quality, but since I moved to halifax, Canada, oh boy. Their city roads are terrible with huge craters. The car jumps all over the place. I am thinking to lower to pressure to 29-30 PSI, but I don't want to have a blow-out either. The tires are very good in puddles and decent in snow if the car is driven carefully. (this is a FWD car also). I can probably get about 55,000 miles out of the tires since their wear is very good. They are not too loud either. The Goodyear Integrity that came with the car were much softer than the BF Goodrich and the car was not jumping from lane to lane but they were not good in the rain at all. At every stop light, those Goodyears were slipping like crazy. The BF Goodrich on the other hand have very good traction in the wet, or dry. Just make sure the roads are smooth were you drive most, otherwise you will have to get used to the jumping. They must have very hard rubber. For the price, they are good tires.
