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.

tires went on my ss/96 s10 235/60/15 all the way around they did great at 60,ooo miles with tread still left...except for the backones theres half bald from a tight clutch and a heavy foot only dissapointment was a bubble in one..but hey 60k im good with that time to replace and will return

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 hard spots and out of round issues with my tires. I need to replace and not sure if I should replace with these tires or go with another brand. I just talked to friend of mine and he had three bad TA over the last year and a half. Any recommendations

The radial T/A's handle great on my Sonoma, currently running a staggered setup with 255/60/15 and 275/60/15 to make the front a little lower. Handles great and tires get great traction even at the limit. Very easy to drive deep into corners and know when and what will happen will predictible handling

BF Goodrich has always been one of my favorite tire brands, but I guess all good things must come to an end. I purchased a new set of BFG Radial T/As for my '77 Trans Am, and even when they were first installed the letters didn't seem to look quite white. I ignored it thinking they just need a good cleaning. I cleaned them and got them looking a little whiter, and then put the car into storage. However, the next time I got the car out the letters were noticeably dingy and looked brown. As first I thought maybe it was just my eyes, or maybe I wasn't using the right product on the tires. I finally took the car to have it professionally detailed, and even they couldn't make the letters look white! Then I did a Google search and found that many other people were having the exact same issue. I took the car back to where I purchased the tires and they told me some mumbo jumbo about how this is supposed to be normal. Normal?! I know what white looks like. I also know that the letters on all the BFGs I purchased in previous years had white letters, NOT BROWN!!! They offered me 30% off a replacement set. I have less than 1000 miles on the tires I already purchased. Thanks, but no thanks. I take my money and purchase a different brand. They may not be as iconic as BFGs, but at least the letters will be white the way they're supposed to be!

The brown letters was caused by my old metal ramps from changing the oil....The tires were too wide & rubbing. Very easy to clean. Use your regular kitchen dish scrubbie thinge....they say to use a brown 3M pad but the blue ones work great with some sort of cleaner...I use windex, clean them, then rinse. Problem solved.

Bought a full set for my 1965 Mustang just about a year ago. I drive less than 500 miles a year. The car is always garaged. The tires (particularly the raised white letters) turn brown in less than a week after cleaning. Very disappointed. I would like some kind of restitution.

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.
