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.

They stick like glue

I put this tire on my 1966 Plymouth 23 years ago and I am just now changing them out because they are old. I only drive the car a few miles a week. I still have plenty of tread left. I am replacing with the same tire.

Just bought 4 BFG ta for my 78 Corvette. What a disappointment ..three of the tires have brown lettering... gonna buy Cooper cobra next time. Have them on my 94 stepside Chevy and they look great... Sorry BFG. And they're half the price.

If you like White Letter tires on your classic like my 70's Corvette, do not buy these! If you like brown letters then these are the tires for you! I found this has been an issue for years after my purchase.

I want my money back or new tires! This seems to be a big issue, not cool for a show car! I have bought way to many tires from BFG and Now? Distributer/retailer would not take them back!

I Bought these BFG’s a Day Ago and i am Very Disappointed at BFGoodrich to see the White Lettering Turn Brown im Still Using BFG Radial T/A But Got Another One Without the White Letters!

I also have bfg tires that lettering has turned brown, no matter how much you scrub they will not turn white and stay that way, it is very frustrating, I like everything about them, except that I cannot get the letters to stay white.

Have had t/a's on my Nova for 14 years now. Replaced my first set 3 years ago and really are not happy with the light brown/tan letters on the tires. My first set were bright white. Not a good looking tire at all. Will buy something else next time.

Great looking tire, have had on many of my vintage muscle cars. Wish BF Good would have more performance tires options in the 225/60/15 and 215/60/15 range, only TA's can be had.
