BENEFITS OF BFGOODRICH • ACCELERATE FASTER. Best wet and dry traction vs. leading competitors. 1 UltiGrip TECHNOLOGY: 1) All-Season Compound - High-silica, cold-weather flexing compound designed for the best wet and dry grip. 2) Directional Tread Design - Large, rigid tread blocks optimize rubber-to-road contact for ultimate dry grip. g-Force ™ TREAD: 1) Advanced Mold Design - Squared-off shoulder and enhanced contact patch shape, evenly distributes stresses across the tire footprint. 2) Performance Tread Profile - Consistent tread block rigidity balances acceleration forces within the tire footprint. PERFORMANCE RACING CORE (PRC): ETEC System ™ (Equal TEnsion Containment System) - Optimizes the contact patch for enhanced traction at speed. • BRAKE SHORTER. Stops up to 15 feet shorter on wet roads and up to 5 feet shorter on dry roads vs. leading competitors. 2 UltiGrip TECHNOLOGY: 1) All-Season Compound - High-silica, cold-weather flexing compound designed for the best wet and dry grip. 2) Directional Tread Design - Large, rigid tread blocks optimize rubber-to-road contact for ultimate dry grip; and V-shape angled lateral and longitudinal grooves efficiently evacuate water for better wet traction. g-Force ™ TREAD: Performance Tread Profile - Consistent tread block rigidity balances braking forces within the tire footprint. • CONTROL IN ALL SEASONS. Better snow traction than leading competitors. 3 UltiGrip TECHNOLOGY: 1) All-Season Compound - High-silica, cold-weather flexing compound designed for for the best wet and dry grip, with all-season traction. 2) Directional Tread Design - High lateral void with beveled biting edges, improve snow snow retention and adherence for great mobility during winter. g-Force ™ TREAD: Performance Tread Profile - Optimized shoulder with large, wraparound outer tread blocks, for ultimate grip in hard cornering. PERFORMANCE RACING CORE (PRC): 1) Dynamic Suspension System (DSS) - Reinforced internal structure that increases control while maintaining ride comfort. 2) g-Control ™ Sidewall Inserts - Adds sidewall stiffness to resist deflection for immediate turning response. 1 Based on internal dry handling and internal wet and dry autocross test results using a 1995 BMW M3 lightweight and a 2011 BMW 328i versus the General ® G-Max AS-03, and Yokohama ® AVID ENVigor in tire size 225/45 ZR17. 2 Based on internal wet and dry braking test results using a 2011 BMW 328i versus General ® G-Max AS- 03, Yokohama ® AVID ENVigor and Hankook ® Ventus S1 Noble2 in tire size 225/45 ZR17. 3 Based on third party commissioned snow spin traction test results versus General ® G-Max AS-03, Yokohama ® AVID ENVigor and Hankook ® Ventus S1 Noble2 in tire size 225/45 ZR17.
