My Goodrich Radial T/A turn brown over time; but clean right up with Bleche White....no big deal, takes about five minutes. Amazing....once in awhile you have to clean your car, hell, you even have to put gas in it once in awhile. If you drive it. As far an any other issue of these tires being manufactured poorly....mine have 10,000 miles on it so far, and they still look new. As for handling, they are doing pretty good on PA highways and roads....but then again, I drive the roads responsibly and within speed limits.

That is not to say that I don't enjoy the curves, as I do. But what I am saying is even with that, the tires do fine as they need to.

What with all this Tire Talk . . . What's the perfect tire size for a '71 Corvette? The 235s seem kind of chubby, maybe a 215 or 225? I'm going to need tires and thought that I ought to start looking for sales or special offers sooner than later. Especially around this time of year when sales and such are around every corner.

Thanks !
