Most customers rate wet traction between 7-10, highlighting confident grip in classic car handling. While some lower scores exist, classic tires are generally not driven extensively in wet conditions.

I do not use these tires in the winter. I use four Winterforce studded snow tires instead. The BFG Radial T/A are a great summer tire with good wet weather grip which important to me. I would suggest the Wintforce tires for the snow. I live in a hilly area and the studded snows and traction control work great.

Most customers rate dry traction highly with scores mostly 9s and 10s. Classic car owners praise confident grip and responsive handling, excelling in intended road use despite a few lower ratings.

In a straight line, these tires are like none other Ive had. Dry traction is phenominal... but on dry pavement, watch out!...
In a straight line, these tires are like none other Ive had. Dry traction is phenominal. Handling on gravel is a bit dicey. I pound my car into the ground and these tires have held up to the abuse. They will not fare very well in adverse conditions such as snow, ice, rain, gravel etc. but on dry pavement, watch out!
As well as road travel, I frequently take my car through light offroading (forest tracts, logging roads, Yes I know its a Hyundai), and have never encountered a problem. Obviously these tires are not designed for such use, but I have to highlight that they have stood up to the abuse.
I am at about 35,000 kms on the tires now. I am wearing down the wear indicators so the treadware was not quite what I expected, however I do drive very hard. I suspect that casual to normal driving habits would see these tires match a quality wear period.
I am more than happy with this tires life and performance. Would I buy them again? Perhaps, but I would not expect them to last for many years. If you want all out performance, and you dont drive in adverse conditions often, and if you dont expect your tire to last a lifetime, this is a great pic!

Great dry traction (they grab the pavement pretty well on really hard acceleration) and good cornering stability.
Great tires. Cannot beat the price. I have them on my 1979 Chevy Camaro, and put about 500 miles on them. Great dry traction (they grab the pavement pretty well on really hard acceleration) and good cornering stability. They are size 245/60/14, and they fit well in my Camaro. The rear tires brush the inside of the fender when I go fast over a big bump, however. Not horriblle though. The front tires clear totally, even when the wheel is turned to the stops and going over a bump. Great tire for all your second generation F-car owners out there who want to keep your stock wheels and put relitively large tires on there compared to stock sizes.

...First test was hard acceleration. Controllable wheelspin for first 40 feet but car went straight as an arrow with no sensation of sideways movement. Next I took the car through a posted 30 MPH curve at 55MPH and there was no squealing or lateral drift just a feeling of being on rails as I took the curve with a feeling of total control...
Just mounted these tires on my 327 CI 350 HP (Dyno figures) 67 Camaro ( VIN # 000002 first day of production build) with 10,000 documented miles that I obtained at an estate sale 2 years ago. These tires replaced the original Polyglas F70-14 rubber that appeared unroadworthy. I did drive the car for about 10 miles with the old tires and conditions noted were instability over 30MPH, squealing during moderate cornering, car spun 90 degrees under heavy acceleration with non-stop wheel spin despite posi differential. Enough. Out with the old and on with the new BFG Radial T/As . First test was hard acceleration. Controllable wheelspin for first 40 feet but car went straight as an arrow with no sensation of sideways movement. Next I took the car through a posted 30 MPH curve at 55MPH and there was no squealing or lateral drift just a feeling of being on rails as I took the curve with a feeling of total control. Next was 55 MPH straight road with momentary hands off steering wheel. The car continued straight with no perceptible wandering. Finally I did a 55 to 0 panic stop. I modulated the brake pedal to the point of threshold skid however the car stopped straight with no perceptible deviation.
I've used BFG Radial T/As on several performance cars and have never been disappointed with their overall performance in all weather conditions except snow. I'm the past I have averaged 50,000 miles before wear bars became visible. I have never experienced a tire related loss of control with this tire.

Most customers rate ride comfort and noise levels between 7-10, with many scoring 9s and 10s. High marks highlight smooth handling and reduced road noise, enhancing the classic driving experience.

Radial T/A's are a great tire for their price. My full size Chevy truck corners very well, and the tires never let loose. The comfort and quietness of these tires are matched by very few of even the more expensive tires. BF Goodrich designed an almost perfect light truck tire for the average consumer.

...They look great with the raised white lettering and have a good balance of traction, comfort, and handling.
Great all-around tire for muscle cars in hard to find 15-inch sizes. They look great with the raised white lettering and have a good balance of traction, comfort, and handling.

...The stright line ride on the hwy is smooth and the car takes bumps and potholes real well.
I put these on my 1965 Mustang Convertible and they are perfect. The look is vinatge muscle car and with the 225/60-15 on the car it looks beefy on the road. The handling is very tight (I run GT springs, front and rear sway bars, and Edelbrock IAS shocks) and the tires grip the road in corners and hwy ramps at high speeds well. The stright line ride on the hwy is smooth and the car takes bumps and potholes real well. I had a set of these years ago and they were good then. These updated T/As are even better. For a 60s muscle car, they are the best choice for price, look AND performance.

Treadwear receives strong ratings, with most scores 9-10. Classic vehicle owners often note tires age out before significant wear, reinforcing their reputation for reliable tread life in typical road use. Some lower scores suggest varied experiences, but high marks dominate for classic applications.

...The tread wear is great...
These are good tires, I would definatly buy them again. The tread wear is great. There not the best in the snow but that also makes it fun. They resist punctures and cuts well too.

...Tread wear is unbelievable. I have not been nice to these tires but they just won't wear down.
All of my friends had used the Radial T/A's on their muscle cars so I thought I would give them a shot. Price was also a factor. I was not disappointed. For the price, these tires can't be beat. I have not been able to overdrive them in the twistys and they do well on the straight, although they are no drag radial. Wet traction is acceptable. Tread wear is unbelievable. I have not been nice to these tires but they just won't wear down.
