A long American history
BFGoodrich is one of the oldest names in American tires, with roots in Akron, Ohio in the nineteenth century. Today it is part of the Michelin group, and among drivers it is widely associated with light truck and off-road tires.
The customer this brand usually suits
The BFGoodrich name tends to come up in one particular conversation: a pickup or SUV that spends real time off pavement and still has to behave on the highway. That is the hardest brief in light vehicle tires, because the two requirements pull against each other.
If that describes your truck, the useful detail to bring is the honest split. A truck that is 80 percent highway and 20 percent gravel is a different purchase from one that is the other way round, even though both owners describe themselves the same way. See light truck tires for how that choice gets made.
What Purcell adds
- Fitting and tire and wheel balancing, offered at 51 locations.
- Car and light truck alignment at 40 locations, which protects the set you just paid for.
- Suspension repair at 34 locations, since an aggressive tire on tired shocks wears unevenly and tells you nothing useful about the tire.
- Fleet accounts at 49 locations, for businesses running pickups and vans alongside heavier units.
At Purcell, BFGoodrich is one of the brands carried for UTV and ATV tires, for trails, mud and rocky ground.
