November 4, 2003 2004 Roush F-150 and Focus Roll on BFGoodrich® Tires Las Vegas NV BFGoodrich® Tires and Roush Performance further solidify their relationship with the introduction of the 2004 Roush-modified Ford Focus and F-150, which both come equipped with BFGoodrich g-Force T/AKDW ultra-high-performance tires, and will be on display at the 2004 Specialty Equipment Market Association show. 
"We have a long-standing relationship with Roush that includes many successful vehicle launches through the years, most recently with the Roush Mustang," said Thom Peebles, brand director for BFGoodrich Tires. "The extensive g-Force T/AKDW offering, the largest tire line in the industry, allows us to cover a wide range of vehicles from the Focus to the F-150."The Roush-modified F-150 features a P285/55R20 g-Force T/AKDW, while the Focus features a P215/45R17. Both vehicles will be available in Ford dealerships in early 2004. 
The g-Force T/AKDW brings together the experience and knowledge that the brand has gained at the race track coupled with input from tuners and dealers around the country. Noted for its incredible dry traction and wet weather control, the g-Force T/AKDW has gained a reputation for long treadlife and a smooth, quiet ride. The tire sports a Y-speed rating (up to 186 mph) making it the perfect fit for many of today's high-performance tuned automobiles.
Regardless of the tread style, drivers can expect exceptional performance in both wet and dry conditions. The g-Force T/AKDW provides excellent traction and handling, resists hydroplaning and gets top marks for progressivity, on-center steering response and feel, and driver feedback.
