A couple of tires I am looking at... anyone have experience?

Some I was looking into for my 99. The advantage of these is I think I can get them at cost...

I've had the BF Goodrich G-Force Sports on my wishlist since early February. BTW, in order to get the proper rollout for your wheel size (to make your speedo accurate) with 17" wheels you should get the 225/45R17 size. I'm considering the 225/45ZR17 for my 17x7 wheels.

I had the G-force tires and the front right tire literally fell apart. The belt started tearing away from the tire. I posted a thread with pictures like 6 months ago, search for it for the full story.

That's pretty crazy. Did you ever hear anything from them regarding a problem in all the tires?

I have Potenzas on my car now, and I agree. I only got about 25k miles out of them.
