The g-Force Rival + is BFGoodrich's Extreme Performance Summer tire developed for sports car, performance sedan, and sports coupe driving enthusiasts who want a reliable fitment to maximize their time on the track in prolonged race events. The g-Force Rival + is built to raise the limits with powerful, predictable grip designed to endure. Like all Extreme Performance Summer tires, it is not intended to be serviced, stored nor driven in near- and below-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.

A further evolution of the BFGoodrich Rival S and Rival S 1.5, the Rival + features an updated compound aimed at increasing longevity without sacrificing performance. The Rival + features an updated tread compound designed to offer maximum dry and wet grip alongside its endurance-focused reformulation, while continuing to sport a 200 Treadwear rating in Uniform Tire Quality Grade (UTQG) testing. This silica-infused compound is molded into an asymmetric, three-rib tread design (four-rib in 265 sizing and above). Large, solid outboard tread blocks and BFGoodrich's Extreme Tread Edge (ETE) shoulder design wraps the tread compound farther down the sidewalls for predictable feedback and maximum cornering grip from start to finish. Lateral groove draft angles promote consistent performance and wear, while chamfered block edges resist feathering under extreme cornering and braking.

The tire's internal structure features BFGoodrich's Performance Racing Core reinforced internal structure that reduces flex to increase steering response. The tread is stabilized by twin steel belts and an Equal TEnsion Containment System (ETEC System) of spirally wrapped nylon to optimize the tire's contact patch and traction at speed. g-Control sidewall inserts tune the sidewall stiffening to promote steering response.

Note: Tires exposed to temperatures of 20 degrees F (-7 degrees C) or lower must be permitted to gradually return to temperatures of at least 40 degrees F (5 degrees C) for at least 24 hours before they are flexed in any manner, such as by adjusting inflation pressures, mounting them on wheels, or using them to support, roll or drive a vehicle.

Flexing of the specialized rubber compounds used in Extreme Performance Summer tires during cold-weather use can result in irreversible compound cracking. While compound cracking is not a warrantable condition because it occurs as the result of improper use or storage, tires exhibiting compound cracking must be replaced.

Los neumáticos Rendimiento Extremo Para Verano son fabricados para conductores entusiastas y apasionados, que buscan tracción similar a la ofrecida por los neumáticos de carrera, pero para uso en carreteras o competir en pistas, autocross y derrapadas (drifting). Estos neumáticos combinan un diseño de bloques o tacos grandes con una mezcla de caucho agresiva, además su construcción interna es reforzada para aumentar la respuesta, tracción y maniobrabilidad sobre carreteras secas. Estos neumáticos son originales (O.E., por sus siglas en inglés) en autos deportivos potentes, cupé de rendimiento y sedanes de alto rendimiento. Los neumáticos Rendimiento Extremo Para Verano no fueron diseñados para ser guardado, reparado o ser utilizado en temperaturas cercanas al nivel de congelación o superficies con hielo o nieve.

Los neumáticos originales (O.E.) Rendimiento Extremo Para Verano, son comprados usualmente para reemplazar pares o juegos de cuatro originales que se han desgastado. Pueden ser usados en otros vehículos, en pares o grupos de cuatro, si tienen el tamaño, índice de carga y código de velocidad, igual al de la categoría de rendimiento y especificaciones de los neumáticos originales.
