You guys seen these ads? Theyve been tagging that claim at the end of all their commercials but dont tell you anything else about it.

Even their own website has no further info about it rather than just restating it without any context.

Was this something recently or from years ago. Its just seems like a pretty big claim to base your whole advertising campaign around without any explanation, anyone know what the hell theyre talking about??

 

I saw an evo

 

Nooooo why the dark side?

Ummmmm, is this a new BFGoodrich g-force KDW?

EDIT: Tires on Evo are
http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/tire-...port-a-s-tires

literally All-Season, is designed to run on dry pavement, wet pavement, and even snow. I would consider these if/when I get a WRX/STI for their snow-capability (well, I would hope)!

 

yeah theres an evo at the end, I know some mags had tested those at 1g stock but clearly people have been putting down 1+gs on street tires for years! If its something that they indeed did first years ago it just seems weird they are crowing about it now, and with no explanation. Even Google is no good, the only results are the BFGoodrich link from above and a bunch of other car forums asking the same question.

Seriously, WTF?

 

Same here; it looks like the Evo X MR.

 

I dont think its the FIRST EVER tire to pull a 1-g turn... its the FIRST ADVERTISED tire... see what they did there


They are advertising this to car n00bs i would think.
Joe Shmoe "ya my tires can handle a 1-g turn in my pino" ect ect..

 

well i think what we need to know is whats defined as a "street tire" it says first street tire to pull 1g...

 

yeah, the funny thing is that it almost looks like it was beginning to kick out the tail at the end. so it's, "first tire to pull a 1g turn!...now watch how it looses traction on this bend!"

 

but wouldn't it matter on what car you're using it on too? i don't imagine i can just put these tires on and all of a sudden i can out handle an Elise or become driving god.

 

Maybe they really meant that it is the first street tire to handle a 1G turn...and that is it. Anything less or anything more and you are on your own.

 

lol so its more of a legal disclaimer than anything else.

 

hmmmm.

 

It's not that recent, but the stock Advans make those BFGs run like all seasons.
