Default Drove 66,000 miles on my BFGoodrich G-Force Comp 2 All Season Tires

Just had to replace my rear tires on my 3IS. Had all 4 new tires when i bought the car at 28k miles now car sits at 94k. Was surprised the life I got out of them considering what i heard was people replacing the tires after 20-30k miles and I do drive spiritedly.

The fronts I had to replace after 34k miles last year (before i installed RR LCA bushings). Hoping to get 60k+ out of the fronts.

One thing I have learned for those looking to maximize the life out of the tires and have your toe set as close to 0. Some shops will try to give you some bs excuse that .20 or whatever is in the factory range etc.

Overall, for less than $200 a tire these tires are great and perform amazing in snow/rain up here in New England.

I ran these for just under 20,000 miles, and they had a good amount of tread left, at least 6/32" on each tire. So I think I burned through tread depth a bit more quickly than you did.

I agree though, these tires are a good match for the car. They really liven up the handling compared to the OE all-seasons, and they never had issues in winter (including some snow) either.

Lucky. After 13,000 miles or so, my tires on my brand new IS were smoked. But they were the sticky California summer tires with aggressive cornering on them.
