BFG Comp 2 A/S

285/35/20 Rear - 245/40/20 Front

Intial thoughts.
Nice Grip, Quieter than Stock. Still tread noise, they are A/S after all.
Softer compound has reduced road noise, all those cracks and bumps are smoothed out.
I will Feel better now when it rains and the temps drop.

The tires look more Square as well, most likely slightly larger contact patch.

I won these at a Raffle during a Track Event @ Gingerman Raceway. How awsome is that.

I have had them on my car for 18k miles. Love these tires, they quiet down after a couple hundred miles.

I will say I love the performance bang for the buck you get from these, but I'm not a fan of the rugged tread look on the shoulders. I also read some reviews that said after a few thousand mile the road noise gets bad.

I could live with the road noise but not the looks.

I know the Michelin's are astronomically more expensive but I have a few friends in high places over at the North American Headquarters maybe I can get hooked up with a discount.

I've had mine on since last Saturday. It was raining like crazy when I went on a test drive. I really liked the way they handled the rain and they somehow cured a buzzing I had with my outboard AC vent on the passenger side. I've been a BFG fan for decades and I really like the look of the Comp-2's. Huge bang for the buck! Can't wait to take the car to AZ this upcoming Xmas.
