BF Goodrich tire who's used these?
G-Force Comp 2 A/S I am not going back to run flats, I DD this car and need a balance between grip and durability. These look like great tires.

A lot of people use them. They were not available in stock sizes for the SS when I ordered. General makes a tire which is very close and was cheaper (plus had a rebate) when I ordered, so that's what I got.

I run them. 305/35/20. I like them way better than the Nitto 555G2. I know I'm comparing an A/S to a summer. But I tried the Nitto 555G2 in the summer and they were no better if not worse than the G-Force Comp 2 A/S or the Conti DWS06 I ran. Plus, you can run the G-Force Comp 2 A/S or DWS-06 in the winter. I gave the Nitto 555 G2 a shot, now I know why they're so much cheaper than the the Michelin Ps4s.
So I run G-Force Comp 2 A/S all year except summer when I run DR's.

I've been running a set on my 15 1LE since April of last year. Around 16k miles on them so far. Absolutely no complaints. Will buy another set when these wear out.

Not an Aggie
I personally prefer the General AS-05, as they're a newer design.

Check with both BFG and General and see which is currently running a rebate. Typically there are rebates from either for a 4-tire purchase every few months. Just time your purchase accordingly and you will save $70-100. I have done this for all my cars for several years now.

From my friends responses they are great tires all year round! Try to pick one up for a good price if you can. I opted for the General AS-05 since it was drastically cheaper for me than the BFGoodrich at the time. If you're willing to spend a little bit more there's also the obvious choices of the Continental DWS06 (Soft sidewalls) or Michelin AS3+.

I'm also running the General AS-05 for winter use (no snow), and have no complaints. They are definitely one of the least expensive options. I'm also not a fan of the large/chunky shoulder tread blocks on the Comp 2 A/S.

That was a complaint of mine when I first got them but after having them on the car for a while, it doesn't bother me. I don't notice it now.
