Well would have thought BFG had fixed this issue years ago. My tires are 2 yrs. old and car is garaged, driven 1000 miles or so a year. After a few hours in the sun at a car show the whole sidewall turns brown , not just the white letters. Looks like I went 4 wheeling in the mud. Car rides awesome with tires but looks awful. Should have bought the Cooper tires.

Since the purchase of the tires they have been on the road somewhere in the neighborhood of 250 miles. The white lettering is brown. Every time I scrub them they look a little better but the browning returns quickly. Since they are on a classic vehicle we would like them to look as they should.

I install a set on my 1998 truck/SUV, and have been please since than. Great tire, I have over 50,000 on these tires and when they wear out I plan to buy a second set. Great in all kinds of weather conditions. I also going to put a set of new wheels on the vehicle 15x8 and the two should go just great together. Good job BF Goodrich keep it up.

I purchased a 1969 Ford Torino 351 GT with reproduction Polyglas tires on it. I'd forgotten how bad bias ply tires were - the car wandered all over the road, the tires squealed easily - it felt like there was a brick on each wheel. Traction in the rain was scary. I replaced them with 215/70-14 Radial T/A's - a good match for the original F70-14 size. Huge improvement - much better traction wet or dry, better grip in the corners and off the line. They even ride better. In my opinion, installing these tires is the best single thing you can do to improve the handling of an older muscle car. A+. Only drawback is you have to change the old "bias ply" front end alignment settings to get the best handling from these radial tires.

A solid and historical performance tire used on many older classic cars that's dying a slow death as BF no longer produces other 50R15 T/A sizes to match (e.g. 265/255/245 for smaller front wheels). A true tragedy. Guess I have to buy Hankook for a US made car?

I have hard spots and out of round issues with my tires. I need to replace and not sure if I should replace with these tires or go with another brand. I just talked to friend of mine and he had three bad TA over the last year and a half. Any recommendations

This is a great tire in this size folks, the best BFG radial IMHO is this size BFG the p295/50R15. I use it on a 15x10 wheel on the rear of my 1981 camaro. Being this size, it offers better ride and handling and wears good in every day driving. In this car its good to get the most tire in the rear you can stuff in it. This size is even better in the rear of the lighter weight vehicles as the wear character is slightly better on a 2800 lb car like a cobra kit car or 1973 comet for example. And I cant find anything wrong with this size radial, except I only use a slick at the track anyway, this is a great tire yall they should never get rid of it ever or change it Ive been buying since I was 16 and is the only size radial I buy for the rear of a car. outy.

To all you proud owners of the raised white letter T/A radial, don't despair. I had a set of 275/60/15's on my Silverado and kept them as white as the Arctic White paint. It's called an S.O.S. scouring pad. Wet one and the letters, give them a brisk scrubbing, rinse off soap residue and they are WHITE again. IT WORKS.

Had these ta radials on 2 vehicles, and still have 2 from 2010 on my truck and see many saying side walls blow out , had rear 2 finally slip a belt which happens when tire is past time to be replaced run correct pressure and due alignments, check shocks and suspension parts they will last like all rubber tires , and also keep rotated, so you guys make great tires and keep up good work also never had issue with the white letters still look good even after 14 years and my truck sits outside in all weather changes lol

A quick background: former auto tech and engine builder. I have a thing for tires...why? Only thing that touches the road ( hopefully ) is your tires. Why skimp? I thought I would be skimping when I purchased 4 215/70 14 Radial T/A tires for my '68 LeMans. Archaic tire for an archaic car. WRONG. The suspension is all new but not "modded", 4 wheel power drums and a stock 7/8" front anti-sway bar, no rear bar. These tires are flat out amazing. Well engineered, excellent construction and great road manners and attributes...which means, stop or go, you are doing well. The car's handling is amazing with the tires...truly, if you can drive, it's a really exhiliarating experience to throw an old boat round the corners. I know I could rebuild the suspension as a psuedo road racer and pull a G on a skidpad but why? For a sane person, these tires and a suspension and steering in great shape are all you neeed. BFG, you have a customer for life.
