Michelin North America Inc. has announced its g-Force Rival+ tire under its BFGoodrich brand. 

“The g-Force Rival+ tire is a complement to the g-Force Rival S, which many people know and love,” says Raymond Cotton, North American motorsports director.  

“Rival S isn’t going anywhere – it still offers extreme performance in dry conditions. The new Rival+ tire has a rubber compound designed to provide consistency lap after lap, while delivering exceptional wet and dry traction.” 

The Rival+ features a fresh compound to deliver long-lasting performance and wet-handling capability for the endurance-based track enthusiasts. 

The Rival S tire features an enhanced ‘S’ compound, which offers dry performance while exceeding UTQG 200 standards. This tire is targeted at the Supper 200 customers looking for an auto cross, time attack or time-trial tire. 

Both tires feature a reinforced internal structure engineered to reduce sidewall flex for instant steering response.  

There are 14 sizes of Rival+ and Rival S tires currently available.
