I am interested in why so many have BFG's that suck? I have a 550 hp and 50 torq motor. I have BFG's...295 back and 255 front. I have had them balanced once......and drive the streets with no issues, as have some others here! I can tak off pretty quick......and sure, they are not 'race tires, to be sure', but they drive fine...maybe a bit hard, but not bad as i would have suspected! I have had the car for 8 months........now have 7400 miles.......(yes, i drive the sh%* out of it) and have no problems. I like to also have something that keeps me from testing the limits, at least on the street! I know they have limits.....and for me, keeps me sane!!
I would also say....that if I were going to hit the track.....these tires would not be on my car! Avons would, or some 17" tires. But for cruising...they work fine.....and trust me...with the power I have, and when i hit it.........they are ok.......or they would be history by now.
We all have our opinions....and some folks have had issues with these tires......but some folks also have had issues with some motors that others haven't! Just the nature of the beast....literally!
