In fewer words, this is designed more as a three season tire than a four season tire. M+S rated tires are not proper snow tires.). That’s not to say that this tire is garbage in the winter, but if you live in a northern climate that gets more than a few inches of snow per year, you should probably have a dedicated set of snow and ice tires anyhow (designated with a ‘three peak mountain – snowflake’ design on the sidewall’. This tire has had to compromise a bit of snow performance in order to increase it’s dry and wet traction and lateral grip. So how is this one any different?īF Goodrich has rated this tire as an all season, but they don’t pull any punches about it working through a heavy snow winter. I’ve always said that All-Season tires should really be called No-Season tires, because in my mind they’ve always been the ‘Jack of all trades’ tire, while mastering none. I’ve always been a seasonal tire buyer, believing whole-heartedly in the concept of summer and winter tires existing separately. When BF Goodrich told me that they had a new performance all season, I immediately questioned whether such a thing were actually possible. You should know up front that I take tires and tire technology quite seriously. So how does this relate to ? Well, we’re going to investigate whether this tire could or should be your choice for your Porsche’s next set. It was a very fun trip, and I was honored to be there.

They also had a full day of car and tire testing activities. In the interest of full disclosure, BFG payed for me to fly to Phoenix, put me up in a very nice room at a very nice hotel, and gave me as much food and drink as I could ever want (BFG is owned by sponsor Michelin).
A few weeks ago, I was invited to represent at the launch of a brand new ‘performance all season’ tire from BF Goodrich in Phoenix, AZ.
