Re: Tires.....ASAP!

Any help or advice would be appreciated. How do the Nittos compare to the BF Goodrich G-Force tires?

They last MUCH longer and are quite a bit cheaper IIRC.

Re: Tires.....ASAP!

Maybe a dumb quesion now. Is it a domestic or foreign tire? Or is it a tire made by one of the major tire makers Goodyear Firestone etc.

Yeah, and from what I've read it's just as good of a tire if not better.

Made by Toyo Tire from Japan. I think you would be much happier with the Nitto's for

A. Grip
B. Ride Quality
C. Treadwear
D. Road Noise

Everything I read about the G-Force TA's had too many complaints in all four categories for the price you pay.
