I have had the same experience with these tires as Dandy Dan. The letters turn brown, and there is nothing that I can do to clean them back to white; not even the best whitewall cleaner on the market will work. I have put these tires on three classic cars (which are driven sparingly), and the same result on each. Good tires otherwise, but I bought them for the raised white letters which are hard to come by these days.

Have used the (P245s, P255s and P275s) /60r15 series tires on cars for many years. These size tires fit the muscle cars of the 60s and 70s great. The traction and handling are great. No one else comes close in a tire for great street driving and cruising. True for ultimate traction there are others out there but when you consider street driving these tires are Excellent.

These tire are flat out the best bang for the buck you can get. They have given me over 75k miles and wear like iron. I drive Michigan streets and roads that are some of the worst in the country and with the last 3 set have never had a problem with any of them. I love BFG tires, rock solid quality !!!!

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.

Great tire. 2 sets. 2wd v6 SLT club cab Dakota. 255/70R15. Excellent wet and dry traction. They corner and BRAKE Well! Several emergency stops in Dallas where my other tires would have failed me. There wear somewhat quickly but 40k isn't bad for excellent traction even down to the bone. If you get 60k... that is hard rubber that won't stop you. I switched to the Rugged Terrain T/A on my Dakota now since I now need a little better offroad gravel traction.

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.

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.

The rating s/b 4.5 stars instead of only 4. I replaced a set of Goodyear tires and it was as if I had bought a new car. There was such a difference in the road noise, handling and performance that I made a huge step up in cars with only buying tires.

These tires are 9 years old with plenty of life left in them. I trade them out with my track tires for use in town and highway driving. Quiet and handle great on some of the more challenging roads like the "Pig Trail" in Arkansas. I just wish I could find another set of P265/50/16 's just like them.

The tires look good on my mustang and have a good option of using the white letters or not. These tires have been on my car for 5 or 6 years and have not rotted out or gone bad so I would say they are pretty good tires. They also get very good grip. The only dim spot is the road noise, but its a muscle car and its noisy anyway.
