BFGoodrich Traction TAs

I need to replace some stock tires 205/65/15 on my car and I am considering BFGoodrich Traction TAs for an all season tire here in the Denver area.

If you have any experience with this tire please let me know what your opinion is.
Or, if you would recommend something else please let me know why.
Thank you for your help

I have researched this at length as I need new tires in about 5K. That would be an excellent tire for your car and climate. I sense you plan on running the tire year round and won't be using snow tires.

These tires are awesome. They are quiet and have excellent dry and wet traction.

I had them for 30K miles and although they do offer great performance in wet weather. Their dry traction is not great but who cares. They handle great in crappy weather conditions and for their category last a long time. 28K miles for a performance tire is a long time. I would contest that they are not that quiet. They are not loud by and means but compared with more touring like tires you will hear a lot more road noise. The noise is tolerable.
