I see these are finally released. Price wise they seem like a really good deal at roughly the same price as the General G-Max.

I can't wait to see some reviews and see how they rate compared to the P-Zero and the G-Max.

Yeah that would be great. Could you post it here as Well? I will have a set of these soon myself and will be posting my personal review as well as the test we conduct at the Tire Rack later this spring.

BFG lagged getting me a set after AWESOMECROSS. I've only been able to put 250 miles on them. One canyon run, but it was raining. I will say I notice a much nicer ride quality.

My experience with BFG tires are that they are LOUDDDDD. Has this been your experience as well with these new ones?

I have had the previous version of this tire on my GP for several years and have really liked them. They are not noisy and on the GP I got around 40k miles out of the last set. Until recently I lived in the Portland OR area and these did very well in all of the rain we get up there so will definately be looking at these when I get my Camaro and need tires!

I don't think these are loud. Then again the rest of my car is really loud.

Looks interesting. I will look into these when I need a complete set. I've been using BFGoodrich exclusively the past 8 years and they have been alright. Love the tread life on them as long as the proper pressures are kept.

Interesting. Looks like a symmetrical design, so if that's the case you could rotate side-to-side if you really wanted to (w/ mount/balance though, still directional).

What's the treadwear rating? That's usually the most telling number in regard to grip. The Pirellis I believe are 180 which is edging toward R-compound.
