Tires BFGoodrich or SUMITOMO

Am avut 2 seturi de BFGoodrich gforce winter 2 pe vechea mașină , curând achiziționez al 3-lea set de BFGoodrich pentru noua mașină.

We wore out the OEMs at 40k and picked up a set of Sumitomo P03 tires. Extremely happy with them. They're not strictly EV tires so there's some efficiency loss (maybe 5-10%?) but the car is much grippier, especially in wet and slushy conditions. Also, it's just way more comfortable of a ride. Kind of doubt they'll last through the manufacturer warranty of 50k miles but also it was just under $100/tire installed at DiscountTire so I'm not terribly concerned

BF Goodrich KO2s have lasted me like 60k miles over many years. I'm still running with decent tread too.

I’ve been really happy with the KO3’s, but they’ve seen very little snow. The BFG’s are quieter than my previous tires (Mastercraft CXT & Cooper Discoverer Rugged Trek).

I've had KO2s on 3 of my cars. 2 pickups and an LC200. Best part of it is halos puncture proof sya. I frequently travel to Bicol and and daming beses na ako nabutasan. With the KO2s never pa.

Falken also makes several tires in that size. Falken are made by Sumitomo and excellent. My Sumitomos last at least 60k and are about $95-120.

One of the best tires I've had, amazing in snow and wear real good. I got about 60000 km on them and about 40% tread left. They just started to get nosey. Amazing in wet as well.

Only have experience with the KO2s. They’re overpriced and get quite loud as they wear and sometimes have balancing issues, especially as they wear down. But I’ll be damned they last forever.

Sumitomo HTR A/S P01. I tried them on two different vehicles and they were downright dangerous in the wet and snow, even when brand new.

I know this thread is almost a year old...But it was one of the first things to pop up in Google.   I bought a Challenger with the Sumitomo all seasons. 245/45r20. They were terrible tires. I figured I try to get 2 years out of them and it didnt happen. They were manufactured in March 2023.  Lasted 12,000 miles before one of them separated from the side wall in November 2024. I got a set of new tires at discount tire and they showed me that 2 of the other tires were starting exactly the same thing. Separating the tread from the side walls. All on the inside so I couldnt see it.  The car shook over 75mph...They wouldnt hold air pressure...They were downright dangerous in winter conditions. They were very noisy and wouldnt grip even on a hot road surface.
