I purchased 2 bf goodrich G-force sport comp-2 radial 205/50.R16 87Z sl tires on April 15, 2019 from amazon, installed on front tire positions on May 9, 2019. Rear tires are general G-max as-03 which are the same size and were used the summer before with no issues, still significant tread life left and no damage. All four tires were inflated to 36 psi after installation. When driving on any kind of moisture, rain night before or drizzle or pouring rain, front tires do not grip road surface and have almost led to numerous accidents at varying speeds on rural roads, city streets, and highways, anywhere from 20mph to 75mph. I have now become used to the danger of the bf goodrich tires and drive extremely slowly in wet conditions. As I have a manual transmission front wheel drive vehicle, I always put the new tires on the front to ensure traction in bad weather conditions, the bf goodrich tires have almost gotten me killed more than a handful of times. As stated by another consumer, I also had trouble mounting one of the bf goodrich tires to the wheel as it did not want to bead and now the tire pressure in that tire will fluctuate, which has led to daily pressure checks. I have never had any issues with any general brand tires. This is the first time that I have purchased bf goodrich tires and I never will ever again. I have driven up to 180kph on the german autobahn in lesser quality vehicles with cooper brand tires, and I have never been as scared as I have been doing 70mph in drizzle with bf goodrich tires. It feels like driving on ice, no handling, no control, just sliding. I'm grateful for the general tires on the rear which have kept me from crashing, and will be purchasing as soon as possible(the only reason I have kept the bf goodrich for this long is because I hoped they just needed to be broken in a little but it has been over a month and it's still scary).

I have had 3 wheel studs break off while changing tires from summer to winter and back. Took to 2 dealers and contacted Ford and none of these sources would honor 3/36 warranty regarding manufacturing defects. Dealers stated that studs were rusty and that they were probably put on to tight. This false, as I do this myself with a torque wrench per vehicle specs. This could be a very dangerous condition if I was changing a flat on some rural road or busy highway and I could not get wheel of without breaking wheel studs. Rust on the studs caused by road salt and debris through the open wheel nut design is a problem that should be corrected by Ford.
