BF Goodrich Radial T/A Tyres

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to find some BFG's with raised white letters for my 91 Fierbird 1x 235 60 R15 and 2x 225 60 R15's I've tried Northhants Tyres and been told they won't have any until the end of the month! Does anyone know of anywhere else that I can try???

Cheers Jim.

Thanks guy's, but I think the duty and shipping on these to the U.K. would cost a fortune! I've seen the tyres are $69 (38 uk pounds) from Summit but then I have to put on shipping and our 17.5% tax etc so they'd end up more!!

Thanks for that anyway.

Jim.

Northants tyres seem to be only place getting these in the UK, from what i found out, personally i would switch to Cooper, you can still get the raised white letters, and they have more uk suppliers.

Yeah I could go for Coopers, but I managed to get a new rear BFG off ebay for 40 quid last week and I'd like to make all my tyres match which they don't at the moment (Remington XP-120's on the rear, odd ones up front)
Anyways I guess I'm just going to to have to wait for North Hants to get some in stock (July-Aug!!!)

Thanks for the help guys, Speed.

If you're looking for white-lettered tyres, Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 series and Goodyear Eagle are good alternative choices in my opinion. Maybe you can find them easier than BFG ones.
