So, I put these bad boys on my 76 Beemer, you know, the classic one, and .. Ive been cruising around East Hamptonand these tires just grip the road like crazy. --- My old tires? Totally useless in comparison, they couldnt handle the heat or the twists of these roads. Not only is the handling on point, but the ride is also much quieter now - though I do hear a bit of a hum when I really get up to speed. Worth it for the peace of mind and the smooth drive. Oh and these tires havent let me down in wet conditions either they handle rain like a champ

Tested: Extreme Performance Summer Tires | Tire Rack
BFGoodrich introduced the Extreme Performance Summer category with their g-Force T/A KD. Its dry traction and handling approached the level of R-compound tires, but stayed street friendly. To reestablish itself in the category, they launched the g-Force Rival to rival the dry performance of other category tires. Does it?

The goal was simple if not easy: improve dry traction/handling without sacrificing any wet/wear characteristics.
