New Goodyear F-1s vs. old Goodyear F-1s
The new ones hands down.
As you all know, I used to ride around town with 1-3 sandbags in the bed of my truck. Since I put these new compounds on, its a whole different ball game. The old ones hooked up for me with the sandbags like these do without them AND the hitch.
But the hitch is going back on since I have some towing to do...
With more power, the new tires netted me a 2.088 60' compared with a previous best of a 2.145 60' stock.

You will go through tires quickly. The Goodyears cost less. and work well for me. I understand that the BFG's are stickier, and assume that means that they will wear faster. If you put on the mileage that I do, you will be putting on tires every 8 months.
That equals about $1,800 a year in tires alone + mods.
