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.

Are You Kidding ? You cannot own and drive Real Muscle Cars with any other tire , I have had some version of the T/A on at least 30 cars since 1977. I wouldn't roll any other way. the look, the ride and the wet traction (for those that drive em year round)is tough to beat. If you got one drive it!

I always mount these tires with the letters facing in. I was very disappointed that the corresponding outside viewing surfaces (on all four tires) was not what it should have been; exhibiting scuff marks which were embedded into the tire surfaces, which could not be cleaned off. This is not my first set of TA Radials that I have purchased in the past and I had no issues; as I bring my car to various car shows in my area so this extremely disappointing.

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

To be honest this is my 3rd set of tires on a classic car and I am not happy with them. This set seems to be a lot more noisy than previous ones

I just finished restoring my 1970 Chevelle SS396 and I was excited about getting my new BFG White letter T/A's. After installing the NOT- white letters, the dealer said the letters would probably scrub white. NOTHING works! Not even Comet and a scrub brush, which I used on all my other vehicles! They are embarrassing at car shows.

I've owned a dozen sets of Radial TA's. The last two sets I bought, the letters turned brown and nothing I used to clean them would bring them back white again. I finally resorted to taking my grinder with 160 grit paper and sanding the top layer off. It worked. Back to white

September 2025 I purchased four BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires for my classic car. Prior to purchasing the new ones, I had a set of Radial T/A's that I used for 18 years with no trouble. They performed great and looked new, but I decided it was time to replace the old tires in spite of their like new appearance. My car is garage kept and well maintained. I have two issues with the new tires: 1. Raised white letters have developed brown spots on the letters. Cleaning does not remove the brown discoloration. 2. The blue protective coating should wash right off with its first cleaning. It does not. White letters are still tinted blue in spite of being washed three times. I am disappointed with all of this, especially considering my 100% satisfaction with my previous set of Radial T/A's. I would have given these tires five stars had it not been for these issues.

Well, I researched these tires before purchasing and read that BFG had remedied the brown lettering problem. I previously had Firestone Firehawk SS20's which were 25 years old and the lettering stayed brilliant white with little effort. I put these new BFG Radial TA's on my classic 1987 Chevy truck and within 1 month the lettering has started to brown. The truck is stored indoors and is very seldom driven. When I got it out again after a month in storage, the lettering had to be cleaned again. It took me about 1-1/2 hours to clean, and they still showed some appearance of browning. I'm extremely disappointed!

Literally the second weekend I've had my car out since the tires have been put on. (Put on About a month ago) and the letters are brown. Should of just stuck with Cooper tires, didn't have any issues from their white letters. Hope you all read this and get ahold of me. I want a refund. Absolutely unacceptable for the money I spent on those tires
