The BFG G-Force Comp 2 A/S


The A/S because at a glance they resemble factory Gatorbacks and their dry performance is comparable to the summer G-Force Comp 2s


Thoughts?

I like 'em!

I have an AS version of the Michelin Pilot on my car, and I enjoy knowing that I can use them in cooler weather. This allows me to sneak out early in the cruising season, and stay out late.

I have these tires on the wife's Subaru. Like them a lot. Smooth and quiet, good grip wet or dry. Haven't tested their limits but way better than the Cooper Zeons i replaced. I run the regular Comp 2's on the Camaro.
