I bought 4 new tires for my 1971 Corvette almost a year ago to pass state annual inspection. I have just read the browning challenges and I empathize with anyone’s discontent. I have had consumer let down on other products but I have had no issues with my BF Goodrich RWL purchase. I wish all well during these challenging times.

I have had the same experience with these tires as Dandy Dan. The letters turn brown, and there is nothing that I can do to clean them back to white; not even the best whitewall cleaner on the market will work. I have put these tires on three classic cars (which are driven sparingly), and the same result on each. Good tires otherwise, but I bought them for the raised white letters which are hard to come by these days.

As of January 2016, I'm on my third set of BF Goodrich T/A's, 255/60/15. that are on a car that I show and not drive that much. The first set set were on 10 years and were great, the letters stayed white, rarely needed cleaning. The next set was put on almost immediately the letters started turning brown. I went back to the dealer, who was great to work with me and they replaced the tires. Well, the second set is no better, in fact worse and seems the more time that passes the worse they get. This is a car that stays in garage and driven to shows and cruising on weekends only, so they are not abused. I have tried every cleaning process possible and nothing works. I am so frustrated that I am ready to foot the expense to purchase another brand. I read so many post where people have the same problem. Seems to be a chemical issue.

I have a 91 Chevy Caprice that came with a new set of these tires when I bought it. Over 40k miles of daily driving in all types of weather later, they still have plenty of tread left. They have also been wearing quite well despite my not keeping up with rotating the tires. Even in rain and snow the traction and handling have been excelent. When its time for new tires I will defently put another set of these on the Caprice.

AAR Cuda classic car. Mounted 235-60-15 Radial TA tires on front, 255-60-15 tires on rear. Vehicle is still garaged and has yet to be driven and the raised white lettering has turned a tan color on the 255-60-15 tires. The raised white letters on 235-60-15 tires have remained white. very disappointing BFG! I am rethinking putting them on my '85 El Camino. Otherwise I have used Radial TA's many times in the past and have always been pleased with them. I will recommend them with caution now. Do you have any recommendations to help me fix this problem ?

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.

I always run these tires on my 68 RS/SS Camaro they’re great looking and performing. Also the only manufacturer who makes a 245/60/14. And all the people giving the tire poor rating over letter coloring a alone need to grow up and understand they fixed the issue and wasn’t even there fault and they are offering to make it right with discounts and or replacements. They make tire paint for couple bucks and a few minutes you can paint the letters white.

Like a lot of others, my BFG tires I purchased a year ago are brown white letters not white. I put 200 miles on the car in the year, so its not driving that causes it. Like others, I have tried wet sand, scrubbing, bleach, turpentine, steel wool and nothing makes them white. It ruins the look of the car when you take it to a show. My local tire guys says nothing wrong with the tires That is not acceptable. Where or who do you contact at BFG to see why the problem and how to correct?

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 installed tires on a 86 Mitsubishi Mighty Max PU and got an unbelievable 80K miles out of them. These were mostly Freeway miles of course. The tires handle remarkable in heavy rain at 80mph with no hydroplane at all. I installed them on all my vehicles that I have ever owned. I cannot think of anything bad about these tires at all and I highly recommend them 110%.
