Description

The BFGoodrich Advantage 2 is a summer touring tire engineered for passenger cars and SUVs in the European market. Positioned within Michelin Group's portfolio, this tire represents BFGoodrich's on-road focus, balancing wet-road safety with mileage expectations. The tread pattern incorporates multiple circumferential grooves—configuration varies by size—optimized for water evacuation. Construction utilizes a new compound formulation designed to improve rolling resistance while maintaining wet adhesion.

Features & Benefits

  • EU wet grip classification "A": Achieves top-tier wet braking performance through optimized groove geometry and silica-based compound formulation
  • Wet braking distance reduction: 5% improvement versus previous generation equates to approximately 1.6 meters shorter stopping distance from relevant speeds (based on internal testing 225/45 R17 94Y)
  • Rolling resistance optimization: Average 6% improvement through redesigned lamellas and compound adjustments, reducing fuel consumption across driving cycles
  • Tread life extension: 5% projected mileage increase compared to prior generation, lowering long-term replacement frequency
  • Balancing tread wear indicator: Visual reference points help identify irregular wear development before it compromises performance
  • Hydroplaning resistance: Enhanced groove design pushes water laterally from contact patch, maintaining directional control in standing water
  • European certification: Manufactured in Europe, meeting regional regulatory standards and labeling requirements

Year Released

Second quarter 2025. This model replaces the previous generation BFGoodrich Advantage in the European summer tire lineup.

Rolling resistance improvements benefit daily commuters and fleet operators monitoring fuel expenses. The 5% tread life gain addresses cost-conscious owners keeping vehicles beyond OE tire replacement cycles.
