Default BFGoodrich g-Force Rival

Looks like everyone's tires shipped yesterday from Tire Rack including mine. Figured it is better to have a separate thread for these like the ZII's rather than clutter the STR wheels and tires thread. I can't wait to try them.

Im just waiting until I hear back on the longevity of the tire before switching over. All of the current tire tests point to this tire being the best, so we shall see.

Mine are currently sitting in the warehouse about 10 miles from work. To bad I can't just go pick them up!

Tony, are you going to the NJ TNT? I think Rad is going to swap wheels w/ Direzzas during the TNT and compare. Also have a set on the way.

I am more curious about the Bridgestone re11a as the price is near z2 territory and I always love the audio feedback and response from bridgestone

I too am interested in the RE11a's, but have already committed to the Rivals. I hope that this thread will be where we can collaborate on pressures, sizes, OOB/shaved, side-by-side comparisons, etc. with the BFG's.

I bet if you created a separate thread for the RE11a, there would be several following it as well. I'm hoping to have several options to have competition to drive down the prices and improve performance.

Agreed somewhat ot. I am interested in this tire as well

Currently have rs3 and the corners or shoulders don't hold up well at all.

Curious to see how these will do

Methinks you need more camber or more spring.

2.8 front and 900 lb springs and not under steering thinks its not the issue

Most people experience shoulder wer on the rs3
