I heard that BFGoodrich is introducing a new tire today called the G-Force Rival. I think it's supposed to be on par with the Nitto NT05. Should be a good replacement for the factory goodyears. I hope they offer it in the 20" rims.

Where do you park?


Car is at my aunts house in her garage next to the car cover housing the '78 emissions choked, non-running 'Vette.

It may be there sitting on the factory 19/20" rims, or it might be on jackstands while the wheels hide in my basement next to the stock rear tires.

Either way, since you want my 19's, I get your 20" rears.

:) Trade straight up.

"There was a town a few miles back. Traded a kid for the van straight up. Get 80 miles to the gallon on this hog."

Edit: WOW I butchered that one.

They sure are a lot uglier than a NT05. NT05's hook up like shit even for a performance street tire IMO, but two things they do very well for a street tire is they handle great, and oddly enough they just work great in the rain. I would consider them a good rain tire even if they weren't a sports car performance tire. It is crazy how a tire with such large tread blocks can do so good in the wet.

Michelin owns BFG fyi.

Wow, they offer it in the sizes I was looking for. I got a set of 20x10 Alcoas. I think the 265 will fit nicely on the front and 285 for the back. I noticed they said "**** You" if you have 19" wheels

Yeah, I noticed that as well. If somebody actually made a 305/35/19 (other than a DR) I would bet they would get some business.

The new tire I would love to get but is not made in our size is the RE-11A which is due for release end of Q1.

What is the treadwear on these?

A set of 275/35/18 and 315/30/18 might suit me nicely.
