BF Goodrich Traction T/A

Little off the truck/suv topic, but it is time for tires on the wifes ride. Has anyone purchased BF Goodrich Traction T/A's? Care to comment? The car is a 02 Olds Intrigue GX. The plan is to plus zero the size to a 235/55/16 from the OE Eagle LS 225/60/16s.

Whad'ya think?

A lot of guys on the Cadillac forum have those and seem to like them. A few of them also like the Cooper Lifeliners. Most prefer Michelins, including myself (I've got Pilot XGT H4s, in 225/60/16 size on my Seville).

While you compare:
Bring in the Sumitomo HTR+ and the Yokohama AVS db's.. Then look at the cost to performance factor.
Just an Idea

Buy the BF. Much better tyres than Goodyear and a 620 treadwear rating means they will serve you will for probably near 80-100k miles. If not, go Yokohama or Pirelli (if they make something that fits).

I just bought some Dunlap Range Rover AT's for my Frontier. They seem to be doing great. I got them from JustTires for $398.02 for all four including tax. They also seem to have a better ride than the OEM tires.
