I use to have the Bf-Goodrich T/A's on my car..I thought they were fine since I hadn't driven on anything else. Nothing to really compare against.

I recently had to buy new tires because the front tires had really bad seperation on the tread/side developing huge bubbles. They were over 7 years old anyhow. I decided to buy some Cooper Cobras from Summitracing. 295 for the rear and 235 upfront. My cobra is only a street driver so I went with another radial tire.

I've had few "oh **** " situations on the hard rubber BF-goodrichs..They are worse when the temps get colder too.

I can't begin to tell you the difference in drive comfort and traction with the switch. I'm not even running on high end tires..I can only imagine the comfort and traction going to the upper tier/quality tires..

I will never go back to the BF-Goodrich tires..They are ok tires but there are alot better out there for just a little more in cost.
