Bought a set of lettered TA's a couple years ago from a major online tire dealer. I don't drive my 79 corvette allot. I do take it to several local shows. It seems like the letters turn brown with the car just sitting in my garage. I tried every thing to clean them. I sent photos to dealer and after several times complaining worked out a deal to get new tires. Just had to pay shipping. Guess what! After receiving the tires the middle of last summer I could tell these tire letters were also turning brown. I stored the tires in bags in my basement this winter. Put them on my car today and tried to get the letters white. I just can't get them white. It's a shame but i'm thinking about tuning the letters to the inside and go with the black wall look or try to sell them and purchase a different brand. I do still have the original GT Radial tires on oem rims the car came with. I can use them for shows but they are flat spotted and not save for long trips. It's funny those Gt Radial tires letters have stayed white even after 36 years.

These tires are the best looking and performing tires for my 72 Chevelle SS. We have driven it on two 5000 mile plus trips and they ride and perform great. Oh yes the noise level from the tires is nil. If it wasn't for the loud mufflers I could hear the radio. I do an occasional autocross with this heavy beast and the tires stick like glue. No other choice for me!

I've been a B.F. Goodrich tire fan, and customer since 1979. These P235/60R15's were just the right size and looks I was wanting to pair with a set of custom wheels. This set of tires replaced my previous B.F.'s that were 13 years old, and still had some tread on them. The Radial T/A is also a favorite at car show events. People love the raised white letters! I'm lucky I have 15" rims, since the RWL's are not available on larger rim sizes. 5 Stars!

I have had 5-6 sets of these tires over the years and always loved them. They ride great and USED to have white letters and looked great. The last set I got, the letters turn brown. I can get them fairly white again but they turn brown, even without driving the car! Unless there is a solution I will look into buying Mickey Thompson’s from now on

The T/A's are quiet and look great on my 2001 Honda Prelude. They provide excellent response and ride. They are providing excellent tire wear. I have 15,000 miles one the set and just had them rotated. The rear tires show no signs of wear and the front show minimal signs of wear. I would buy again.

I bought these tires for a recently restored 1968 Mustang convertible that I’ve owned for nearly 40 years. I’ve tried everything to keep the raised white looking white, nothing lasts, they ooze brown. Even the black looks brown stained. The car is kept in the garage only driven on sunny days with dry roads. I owned these back in the day and never had this issue. Given all the complaints you really should come up with a solution and some assistance. Thank you.

I bought these while restoring my 1968 Ford Falcon and they're better than I ever could have expected. The quality is very good and the grip is amazing. It's got a warmed over 289 small block with aftermarket intake and 4bbl carb which should easily break the tires loose at any stop sign, but the tires hold the pavement like glue and provide as much grip as I could ever want. Even going around corners on concrete in the rain, the car holds the road like nothing else. I'm not sure exactly how much the gas mileage changed due to the tires since I put them on right when I got the car, but the wear is also very good. I've been using it as my daily driver for almost 10 months now and can't see any visible tread wear (even after a few burnouts).

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.

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.

Same as everyone else unfortunately. I bought these tires two years ago to complete the restoration of my '66 fastback and almost immediately the letters started to turn brown. I tried the super clean as noted earlier and it worked the best of anything so far. I did two rounds with it then a followed up with greased lighting. Very disappointed in BFG.
