BF Goodrich tyres?
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Has anybody tried BF Goodrich medium tyres for motocross? How do they hold up (longevity, grip etc.?) compared to Dunlop/Pirelli/Michelin? I have an opportunity to get a load for half the price of the latter makes, are they worth trying out?
Thanks,
Philip

Tyres? I love the way you guys spell that. I didn't know B.F. Goodrich made moto tires. If you get any good info would send it to me? Thanks

Hmmm, maybe they have just started manufacturing them, that's why they are so cheap 
?
Maybe I'll give them a shot and see how they hold up, I'll post back if I do...
I just put on a set of Pirelli, got them cheap enough as well. I have to say I am very disappointed with them compared to the Dunlops I was running before. After only one MX the front knobs are rounded at the edges, if it was a Dunlop I would be changing it pretty soon with the wear on it. The back is sliced and chunked, not badly but I've never seen anything like it with Dunlops. So that's the last time I throw my money into the wind with Pirellis!

Always had Dunlop, got an 02 RM 250 with Michelin's, I like them a lot. Tires can be the most important thing you buy on any combustable device. I dont know if mine are the best, but the work well...

@ zenith
It would be great if you can post your thougts about the goodrich tires. I have only seen them in a magazine and was wondering about the price. Looks very cheap compared to dunlops pirellis or whatever. But how is the performance? And how long do they last? Are these tires manufactured by Michelin (as those companies belong to each other)?
