From owners

Pros, cons & observations

Themes extracted from owner reviews across retailers and review sites — not the opinion of TireWheelGuide.

Tire A BFGoodrich Long Trail T/A Tour

The BFGoodrich Long Trail TA Tour is viewed as a reliable, long-lasting tire for dry and mixed-use driving conditions. While it offers respectable tread life and highway performance, it is significantly compromised in winter weather, making it unsuitable for regions with frequent snow or ice.

Pros

  • Impressive tread longevity
  • Reliable performance on dry pavement
  • Suitable for balanced city and highway commuting

Cons

  • Poor traction in snow and ice
  • Limited confidence during cornering in winter conditions
  • Subpar performance in wet weather

Observations

  • Users report achieving a total tread life of approximately 50,000 to 60,000 miles under mixed driving conditions.
Tire B Continental TerrainContact A/T

The Continental TerrainContact A/T is widely regarded as a premium, road-focused all-terrain tire that excels in comfort, low noise levels, and wet-weather performance. While many users report exceptional longevity and highway stability, a subset of owners express disappointment regarding its performance in deep snow, ice, and heavy mud, suggesting it is better suited for light off-road use than extreme conditions.

Pros

  • Exceptionally quiet and smooth ride quality for an all-terrain tire
  • Superior wet-weather traction and hydroplaning resistance
  • Strong on-road handling and stability during highway driving
  • High durability and tread life reported by many long-term users
  • Excellent value compared to other premium all-terrain competitors

Cons

  • Inconsistent performance on ice and packed snow
  • Limited capability in deep mud or extreme off-road terrain
  • Reports of premature tread wear in some heavy-duty or high-torque applications
  • Potential for a slight decrease in fuel economy compared to highway-terrain tires

Observations

  • Subaru Forester owners appreciate the tire as a 'set-and-forget' solution to avoid seasonal tire swaps, though they note minor flat-spotting after sitting.
  • Heavy-duty truck owners (F-250) report mixed results, with some praising towing stability while others cite faster-than-expected tread wear under heavy loads.
  • EV owners (Rivian) report improvements in noise and comfort compared to OEM tires.

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.
