My 155-80r15s are one month old. I bought them specifically because I like the bright contrast of the raised letter look. They began to turn brown immediately upon washing off the "blue". I have noticed other T/A radials that look similar, but I have noted some older ones that are brilliant white. Even some older T/A All Terrains that looked perfect. Lots of your people trying lots of different things but I am not sensing a permanent solution. I can't imagine Michelin messing with the compounding formula. How can they allow this to go on? They certainly know about it! It seems to me to be a QC/QA issue. And I am worried about what one commenter said, that they got to the point of a permanent stain he could not correct! I've tried old formula bleach-white, acetone, lacquer thinner and turpentine. I've put carabuna wax over the "GOOD" in Goodrich to see if it makes any difference. Nothing so far has worked perfectly. They are never brilliant white and they always revert. All I can do is spread the work among collectors to stay away from these tires and encourage Cooker to come up with a BFG equivalent that gives you what you pay for. On a low mileage collector car I am now stuck with these for years cleaning them letter by letter prior to showings. Good luck.

I've been running B.F.Goodrich tires on all my cars and trucks sense the 80's have never had any problems with any of there tires and just last year we replaced all 6 vehicle's tires and believe me my wife is the roughest on the tires of the cars she drives.

Have run 255/70/15s for years with stock suspension in my '93 Silverado; always felt like it looked like a little old lady going through a mud puddle with her skirt pulled up. Installed a Belltech 2" lowering kit. Now it sits where the factory should have put 'em in the first place...would love some T/As in maybe 265X75s to fit the factory 15" alloy wheels to fill the rear fender wells better, and a little more "attitude". Closest thing is the Long Trail Tour T/A. May have to opt for them...don't like the off-road connotation; turn the white lettering inside. Great tires, T/As. Just the ticket for real Detroit Iron.

These tires went on my 1985 Cutlass that I purchased new in 1985 and only have 45,000 miles on it. The Radial TA's take me back to the musclecar days of the 60's and 70's. I'm glad BFG still makes this classic look available! They provide an excellent ride and look great!

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.

First time using BF Goodrich product and please to say they have lived up to their name. Recently, purchased a set of 4 tires for my truck and the ride has been smooth ever since. I'm enjoying hearing the sound of the tires gripping the road as i make a sharp corner. Previous tires would give a slip before traction on wet surfaces but with these radials no slip; traction all the way.

I have had these tires on my off road dune buggy for 2 years now it plays in mud, sand and everything else, and to all the people who talk about the "brown" letters, they just need to learn how to clean them. I use Malco white wall cleaner and a scub brush and mine look as good as new! PS so did my 30 year old set that I took off 2 years ago.

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.

The whitebands on the tyre keep their look well. The tyres are dependable in terms of grip, and I expect to get reliable use from them for the full 8 years before they become over-aged. I look forward to replacing them with another set of BFG whitebands.

Have the 235/70 R15 tires mounted on a 2001 Chevy S-10 Crew Cab. Only have 33,000 on the tires and they are nearly all worn down...very disappointed in the tread life. Also, when the vehicle sits for a while they get flat spots until it is driven and the spots are slung back out.
