#BFGOODRICH G FORCE COMP 2 DOWNLOAD#We even have a free download on the latest UTQG values from the leading tire manufacturers. With the UTQG tread wear rating & mileage warranty in mind, we can safely assume that G-MAX AS-05 would end up with a slightly higher expected mileage.įor more in depth information about UTQG, please check out this article here. The extra 5000 miles warranty provided by G-MAX AS-05 was inline with the UTQG tread wear rating with G-MAX AS-05 having a 100 point more advantage against g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS. #BFGOODRICH G FORCE COMP 2 PLUS#The mileage warranty for g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS is 45,000 miles while G-MAX AS-05 provides 50,000 miles. Below are the UTQG values of both of the tirelines. We have previously shown that UTQG tread wear rating can be a good indication of your expected mileage. As with snow, g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS is a far better tire in icy conditions. While in acceleration, it took g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS 0.8 seconds faster to reach 60 feet compared to G-MAX AS-05. At a braking speed of 12 mph (20 km/h) to 0, g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS was stopping 10.9 feet (3.3 m) shorter than G-MAX AS-05. G-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS continued its winter dominance with a strong ice performance. Nonetheless from the overall scheme of things, g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS is without a doubt the better snow tire. It is also good to know that the levels of snow grip are quite low for both tires as they are rated G-MAX AS-05 (2/10) & g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS (3/10) respectively. While it was also quicker in lap time ( -9.9 seconds !) and also subjectively better (+1 points) in snow handling. It stopped 19 feet (5.8 m) earlier than G-MAX AS-05 from a speed of 25mph (40 km/h) to 0. When it comes to snow, it is not an exaggeration to say that g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS totally destroyed G-MAX AS-05 in all snow performances. Hence they do not have to pass a certain threshold of snow traction level as determined by the legislation. From initial checks, both tires do not include the 3 peak mountain label to legally certified the tire as a winter tire. +2.1% in average of Noise, Comfort & Ride Quality.Īs both tires have been rated as an all season tire, we were thrilled when Tire Rack included snow on its testing list.People who drive fast cars prefer to focus more on traction/braking performances rather than subjective comfort Anyhow the ride comfort was tested and g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS was slightly better with an overall rating of 7/10 compared to the 7.42/10 of G-MAX AS-05. Normally in an ultra high performance segment, noise & comfort is usually not the main requirement. Overall, g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS has an edge in dry performances over G-MAX AS-05. #BFGOODRICH G FORCE COMP 2 DRIVER#Test driver feedback on g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS Even so, the positives outweighed the negatives, with confident braking feel and deceleration, nice balance with just a hint of understeer, and impressive traction to power away from turns. The precise steering and strong mid-corner grip meant the tire faithfully pointed the vehicle exactly where the driver intended, though it didn’t feel particularly light on its feet or ultra-responsive. Lap times were really close with g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS only 0.17 seconds faster. g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS managed a subjective dry handling score of 7.94/10 while G-MAX AS-05 had a 7.63/10 rating. In dry handling g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS continues to have an edge in both subjective & objective(lap time) criteria. g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS was ahead of G-MAX AS-05 in dry braking by stopping 4.3 feet (1.3 m) earlier. However this is the default daily usage and the tires have to perform at a very consistent level. In a nutshell, g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS dominated on wet surfaces convincingly over G-MAX AS-05.Īs for dry, safety is usually not an issue as the braking distance is much longer than wet. Combined with the high levels of ultimate grip, the result was driver confidence and the highest subjective score. This advantage in lap time was also reflective in subjective rating, as g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS had a slightly higher rating of 7.38/10 compared to 6.94/10 of G-MAX AS-05.Ĭlear communication with the driver revealed exactly where the limit was and the tire didn’t punish small mistakes. g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS had a 0.7 second advantage in lap time over G-MAX AS-05. With its wet braking advantage, g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS continued its dominance over G-MAX AS-05 in wet handling. With regards to our comparison, g-Force COMP-2 A/S PLUS has a big edge when it comes to wet braking, as it out performed G-MAX AS-05 by braking 8.4 feet (2.6 m) earlier. It was so important that the EU label has wet braking as one of its three criteria. Hence it is more likely to get into a road accident during wet conditions rather than on a sunny day. The friction of coefficient of the tire/road dramatically decreases in wet roads compared to dry roads. Testing vehicle of choice: 2020 BMW F36 430i Gran Coupe Wet
