good
Ranked #12 of 20

12 out of 20 competitors, final rating 'Good'. The tyre proved a true snow specialist — a "snow king" with absolute top-level performance and best results in longitudinal aquaplaning, snow traction, snow braking, snow handling and snow cornering — but that strong focus on snow left its performance unbalanced, with wet and dry behaviour only just acceptable. It did not finish last in any tested property.

Ranked #4 of 20

Securing the 4th place among 20 competitors, the BFGoodrich G-FORCE WINTER 2 earned a commendable 'Good' rating, highlighting its strong performance in challenging winter conditions. The tire was lauded for its secure handling capabilities on both wet and dry surfaces, alongside its impressive aquaplaning resistance. Particularly noteworthy was its excellence in disciplines such as longitudinal aquaplaning, comfort, and snow braking, where it outperformed its rivals. However, a minor drawback noted was its slightly longer braking distances on dry roads. Overall, its blend of safety and performance attributes positions it as a reliable choice for winter driving.
