Default Kudos to Goodrich

Bought a set of new T/As last March. 2 ea 255/60/15 and 2 ea 245/60/15. The front (smaller) white letters are brilliant white. No problem. The back aren't white, but closer to yellow. Tried Wesley, comet, sos, etc, etc and still yellow. 'Bout a week ago I contacted, thru email, Goodrich. Got an answer yesterday. They told me to take them to a dealer and to have the dealer call them. Long story short (er): I pick up the new tires Monday, mounted, balanced, installed for a reasonable cost of $0.00. One of those feel good moments. Have a wonnerful weekend, Bill

Mine are yellowing too. Only had them on the car for a couple months.
May have to get a hold of Goodrich also.

Do me a favor and wait 'til Tuesday. Thanks, Bill


Bludice: You can't really tell the rear tires are yellow, but they are. In fact, the manager of the tire store told Goodrich that they are "banana" yellow. Which actually isn't far from the truth.

Everyone: Have a great weekend, Bill
