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'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 owned many sets of these tire over the years. Getting ready to buy another set for my dad's 66 Chevelle that he restoring. He has owned this car for 47 years. It was his high school transportation, he and my mom dated in this car, it was a drag race car all of my childhood, now its being restored to almost original glory. Only the best parts have been used during the rebuild, so why would we choose any other tire. BFGoodrich Radial T/A is the best tire available for a muscle car! Thanks for a great tire time and time again. *On a small note to the other reviews in regards to the browning of the letters. It's seems the complaint is only about the rear tires, which makes perfect sense. Doing burn outs will cause this to happen.

I just bought new T/A Radials to replace my 10 year old ones and disappointed in the lettering. One is kind of white, another is just a brown, tar color that doesn't come clean. In the past, the came with that blue coating that protected them until you washed them off with soapy water. Now, no such luck. Tire is still good, just have to run the black side out.

I have owned several sets of BFG Radial TA's throughout the years and had nothing but praise for them. Until now, that is. My latest set seemed different from the day I bought them. The blue protective coating seemed nearly impossible to remove. Then, the white letters just didn't seem to come clean. These tires are on a collector car that stays safely stored in a garage and only gets driven to car shows and cruises. However, after being stored away, the lettering is now stained brown. Also, the black sidewalls are discolored as well. They seem to be oozing some sort of solvent. I've tried every type of cleaner and scrubbing method to no avail. So BFG, what gives? None of the previous versions I've purchased have had this problem. Just a quick search on the internet shows that this is a widespread problem with these tires. The irony of this issue is this. Consumers who buy these particular tires are classic car enthusiasts who take great pride in every detail of their cars. They want to take them to shows and cruises and present them as works of art. Frankly, I'm embarrassed to take my car anywhere with my BF (Brown Font) Goodrich Radial TA's on it. Other enthusiasts look at me in disgust as if I couldn't take 5 minutes to clean my tires! So my question to you is, "How can you market a specialty tire to a certain target group, yet your tire no longer meets that groups need? BTW, I paid much more for this set of BFG's than I did for any previous sets I've owned, yet I've got an inferior product. Is Goodrich doing anything to address this problem or accommodate customers, or would you prefer that loyalists like myself look to other tire manufacturers?

I purchased a set of BF Goodrich Radial TA. The black bleed through the white letters. Called BF Goodrich and they stood behind them and gave me a new set. Now the new set is doing the same thing. Why are you selling reject tires. I know BF Goodrich is aware of the problem. Until it's made right, I will not purchase or support your product ever again. Tired was very expensive.

BLACK LETTERS OUT! 69 1/2 440 "Six Pack" Super Bee". Car was built with plain steel wheels, chromed lug nuts & Redlines. Its a wide car that SMOKES any tire you put on it. Well? These DO "Hook Up" much better than ANY brand Ive ever used. Yes I can still "spin" them, but thats NOT what I needed. Ezcellent tires. 295/50-15's No 100% Satisfied! MoPar or NoCar!

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.

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.

Bought a set of BFG T/As for my restored Mopar. Last set of these same tires I purchased in 1999, always stayed white. These new ones won't even stay white while being parked in a dark garage. At least the 2 on the front won't. The fronts are 215/70×14. The rears are 255/60×15 and they will stay white a lot longer than the fronts. Very disappointed in the looks of these white letters. Love the tread pattern and the ride, but hate the brown letters. These new ones don't even have 500 miles on them yet. What has been changed over the years ro cause the major problem??
