From owners
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.

- 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 Kumho Solus TA31 receives a polarized reception, with users divided between those who value its quiet ride and affordability and those who find its handling and longevity lacking. While some drivers report excellent value and high mileage, others express significant concerns regarding stability during emergency maneuvers and premature tread wear.
Pros
- Low noise levels and high ride comfort
- Strong value for money
- Attractive aesthetic design
- Reliable performance for conservative, daily driving
Cons
- Unpredictable handling during emergency maneuvers

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.
