These came standard on our secondhand 2 y/o Lynk & Co 01 phev with 16k kms, and are the first/factory fitted tires. They will likely be finished after 23k kms, according to our garage mechanic. Since we did 3k of those projected 23k, it's difficult to offer any long time judgement. But for the 4k we've had them here in the Netherlands and during our French holiday, they were decent, but not great. They favor new and pristine asphalt, and handle a bit better in a warm and dry environment, wet and cold aren't its favorite circumstances.

Very good summer tires for UK roads and conditions.
These tires handle very well in all condition (except snow and ice).
I bought a set of 4 fitted for £300 and I am satisfied with with the comfort, wearrate, noise and overall value for money
9/10

Good tires but I assume the side wall to stiff and noisy is the minus point . The rest of it I’m happy with it .

What an amazing rubber.
Road grip is absolutely insane, and handles like rubber is sticking with the road at speeds over 160KMH.
Makes my 18 years old Toyota Premio drive SUPER STRONG.

I had these fitted on December 30th and it is now January 16th, so I'm only a couple of weeks in. It is also summer here, so I haven't really been able to do much really wet road driving - so all of this is initial impressions.
Previous tire was Michelin Pilot 5 sport - which I loved but did not go back to as they have become extremely expensive, and as a UHP tire I only get around 18 months out of them - also I'm getting old now so don't drive as enthusiastically as I did when I was younger.
So I was looking for something more budget friendly that would last me a few years.
I have to say so far I'm very pleased - the best thing is how it has transformed the ride quality. The P5S were always quite crashy on the Lexus on poor road surfaces (which is basically everything around where I live) - the Advantage Control just soaks it all up, and makes the Lexus feel like you expect a Lexus to feel like.
They aren't a patch on the Michelins for grip, wet or dry - but they are very communicative about their limits. Also, the Michelins always felt a bit vague on centre (actually at times thought I had suspension issues) - the BFG's feel very confident on centre by comparison.
If I felt I still needed something with the best grip in the conditions I mostly drive in, I would still go with the P5S - but I'm extremely happy so far with the BFG's. I'll update in a year or two with my thoughts on wear - I've already done about 3000km on them though and they still appear new across the whole tread, front and rear.
Previous tire was Michelin Pilot 5 sport - which I loved but did not go back to as they have become extremely expensive, and as a UHP tire I only get around 18 months out of them - also I'm getting old now so don't drive as enthusiastically as I did when I was younger.

I fitted these to my Honda Civic and at first they were wonderful, but they wear BADLY. About a year of use, very little long distance driving, and they've had it. Full disclosure - Cornwall's roads SUCK so that is definitely a big part of the issue but I have never had tires wear so badly. Part of the tread is peeling from the tire body, side wall cracking after a moderate bump with a kerb, but honestly these things SUCK. I'm not a slow driver but not a hoonigan either and compared to the rear tires you'd swear I'd been burning them out. Absolute crap, having to replace all four because I don't trust them. Avoid.
Yokohama BluEarth E70 rated 76% while driving a Nissan Kicks E Power

Replaced original tires on a Nissan Kicks after 5 months and 10k km. Nissan Service was the second issue, original factory tires were horrible quality and splitting so purchased new E70’s.
No issues so far, 30k km, feel, noise, grip, all good. Do a lot of mountain road driving, no problems at all.
Overall, good value for the money.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance 2 rated 94% while driving a BMW 316

I bought four GY EfficientGrip Performance 2 for a BMW 3 series Touring to replace Goodyear runflats. Have always tended to replace runflats with non-runflats at the first opportunity. These tires immediately drastically improved the comfort level, especially across ruts, patches, potholes and worn surfaces on UK roads. Lower road noise too.
My car has the softer SE-spec suspension and so it doesn't exactly corner that well. But with these tires, the wet cornering is very good, I've never felt it give me any sign it is starting to struggle with grip. They have made a soft car very driveable in the wet. Aquaplaning performance is particularly good.
BEST BIT for me is the wear resistance. Granted, I do 3000 miles a month down the length of the UK on motorways so clearly the wear on such drives is minimal. And also granted, the car doesn't have a lot of power. But with that said, I have done 62,000 miles on all four with occasional rotation of front to back etc and I still have 5.0mm left on three and 4.5mm on one.
Particularly impressive is that this level of wear resistance doesn't seem to come at the expense of wet or dry grip.
There won't even be any consideration when it comes to replacements. Four more of the same. Simples.

Tires are very silent, do not loose pressure and feel very safe both in dry and wet asphalt. It is the second time that my car "wears" these tires and I will surely continue to prefer them.

These tires have given good grip both wet and dry. The steering response is better than other previous brands. So far they are lasting well and with the added advantage of an accidental damage guarantee offer great value for money. I will be buying these again when they have worn out.
