Did away with the RFTS - BFG G-force comp 2

Hey Guys,

After a long few winter months and endless potholes, I took off the rough riding run flats on my '15 F10 and searched for something that was affordable and could perform better than the rough riding tires I got from factory.

I settled on the BFGoodrich g force comp 2s. Found a good deal on tirerack and they showed up the next day. I've put about 150 miles on them at this point, I'm quite pleased.

They ride great. Improved cornering, do better on rough roads and really grip well. They also look a bit meatier than stock and give a nice look to the wheel. I think 351Ms look awesome wrapped in these tires. Super quiet on the road and I've not noticed any decrease in stopping power. I'd like to say they probably stop better than the stock RFTs, but I'm generally pretty easy going on my brakes.

For an all season tire, these are a great non-runflat alternative!

there are many other options too, but I took a chance with these since u hadn't seen them reviewed on the boards. I think they are phenomenal!

After 3 freaking bent rims and 2 freaking Blown Goodyear L2's on my 2013, I ripped of the Goodyears myself! Now, I have 2 of them with 10k miles, 1 with 2000 miles and 1 with 300 miles that I will see off to someone or another.

I bought the Continental DWS 06 (Brand New Model) and the ride, handling and overall comfort are unbelievable compared the Run Flats. Tire rack has them with a 70 dollar rebate right now too! About 200.00 a piece! Highly recommend the Continental and reviews are GREAT!
