I noticed you went with the BFG's I was doing research on tires since im in the market for new rims and tires, I heard within a few hours of cleaning off the protectant blue film over the white letters they will turn brown and almost impossible to get it to become white again, what is your experience with them so far? and as always your monte is awesome!!!
thanks Danny

FYI, Mickey Thompson is owned by Cooper, as in the same company.

Sometimes, they'll update the tread pattern and that will be the main line tire. The outdated tread pattern, though there is nothing wrong with it will be sold as another line of tires.
