Review Summary
The tires provide good performance, handling, and traction, especially on dry and wet roads. Customers praise the stability, comfort, and low noise levels. However, a recurring issue is the tendency of the white lettering to turn brown over time, even with light use, which many find unacceptable. Some report faster-than-expected wear, durability concerns, and poor value. Overall, the tires offer a good driving experience, but the browning lettering is a significant drawback.

Need larger Radial T/A'S
I have owned many sets of BF GOODRICH RADIAL T/A I love the look and performance of the tire. I don't understand why it is not made in the new larger wheel sizes. Not everyone want's rubber bands on large wheels. This is an iconic tire and has a great look with the white letters. I need these tires for larger wheels for the stance and look I want on my car's and truck's. Not everyone wants their vehicles dragging on the ground.
Thanks for taking the time to submit a review Chris old school. We will pass along your suggestions to our marketing group.

Brown Raised White Letters
I have had BFG Radial TA's on my 1971 Buick since I bought it in 1978. I bought new ones last year in July 2017. I dont get it out as much as would like to but the raised letters never have cleaned up to a white color and even after I clean them 2 weeks later brown again. I think the oil in the rubber is seeping through the white (my guess). I found others were having the same issue. I sent a chat message to BFG and they told me to have my dealer file a claim and that they have now changed their formula (to get rid of the brown I assume). So I took them to my tire place and they contacted BFG and BFG was willing to replace them but charged me 8% of the new tire price since I had 900 Miles on them. THEY WERE DEFECTIVE WITH 0 MILES ON THEM! Maybe BFG should take into account how many hours I and others spent trying to get their defective tire letters white. Not a very happy LONG TERM BFG CUSTOMER.
