Biased?

[348]

I'm looking at some Coker tires. Some are radial and some are bias. Are there benefits to radial over bias as they wear/age?

What are you putting them on? I run bias super swampers on my 71' bronco on the rocks......radial Big O tires the rest of the time. If it's a show quality restoration to drive in a parade, I'd go original bias..........otherwise, I see no benefit of bias tires over radials for everyday driving.

Sometimes when you hit the nail on the head it hurts feelers.

i think radial tires are more radical than bias ply tires. Bias ply tires are for old lady drivers. what?!?!!!?!? (i'm just saying what every single one of you guys is thinking ... )

lol!!!!

I used to know an old guy who seriously said "steel belted radicals" and "multi velocity oil." He was against both.

Stay away from bias tires for highway use except for heavy hauling. Radials are much better/safer on most vehicles.
