Pros, cons & observations
Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.
The BFGoodrich Advantage TA Sport is perceived as a performance-oriented all-season tire that excels in dry handling and cornering stability. While it offers a responsive and engaging driving experience, users note that this performance comes at the cost of increased road noise and slightly vague on-center steering feel.
Pros
- Strong cornering grip and stability
- Responsive steering feedback
- Comfortable ride quality
- Excellent dry weather performance
Cons
- Higher than average road noise
- Vague on-center steering feel
Observations
- The tire is noted for its ability to handle spirited driving on backroads, suggesting suitability for drivers who prioritize handling over absolute cabin quietness.
The BFGoodrich Winter Slalom is generally regarded as a capable winter tire that offers strong traction in snow and wet conditions alongside commendable tread longevity. While users appreciate its aggressive tread design and low noise levels, there is a consensus that performance, particularly regarding grip, tends to degrade significantly as the rubber compound ages beyond the five-year mark.
Pros
- Strong traction in snow and wet conditions
- Aggressive tread profile
- Low road noise
- Excellent long-term tread wear durability
Cons
- Significant loss of grip as the tire ages
- Performance degradation on wet surfaces after several years of use
Observations
- Users reported consistent performance over moderate mileage intervals, specifically noting minimal wear after 10,000 miles of winter driving.

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements) normalized against the best tire in each test and weighted toward recent tests. 40% comes from thousands of owner reviews collected from retailers and review sites. When a tire has only one of the two, we use what exists and say so.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
