Review on BFGoodrich g-Force Stud 215/60 R16 99Q winter by Wiktor Wnkowicz ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Unsatisfactory quality, I wont buy it anymore.

I skated for a season and a half, with the Hong Kong winter I drove on wet / dry asphalt, and on rutted snow, and on snow porridge and climbed over snowdrifts. Conclusion: I will take something else. Car: front-wheel drive crossover. On asphalt, wet / dry, I didn’t notice any significant increase in braking distance, on ice it slows down well, abs practically doesn’t work. It creeps confidently on unremoved snow, slips only at the start. All this is true for frosts not lower than -10 degrees. In the recent -17 -20, the wheels became hard: I skidded in the snow like on summer tires, the tread was completely clogged and cleared up only after a couple of minutes of driving on asphalt. The car has become disgusting to brake - you have to press the pedal very carefully and strongly in advance, otherwise the abs and the gnashing of spikes on the asphalt. When crawling with right wheels on an asphalt road, and with left wheels on a half-meter snowdrift of very dense snow, the car suddenly began to slide onto the asphalt to the right, the spikes slid safely along the asphalt without stopping the side drift. In recent snowfalls on an uncleaned road, I turned police turns, despite the spikes in the wheels . A couple of weeks before ng, I hit the road along the route Msk-Hong Kong-Eagle-Hong Kong-Msk, on m3 and m2 at speed the car behaved perfectly, kept the road confidently, both on brushed asphalt and on a track in the snow. I took it from the manufacturer, because I have experience of riding on their AT tires on asphalt / off-road in the summer, I hoped that they would blind their winter tires to the conscience, alas, in vain =(

Pros
  • Appearance, price The spikes work great both on ice and asphalt. In the autumn-winter slurry on the primer, the car obeys the steering wheel perfectly. Mileage about 7k, all the spikes are in place, no hernias.
Cons
  • Loose snow - rowing badly Lateral drift - perfectly demolishes sideways on a slope. In severe frost, it does not differ much from summer - it becomes dull.
