Re: Bias Ply tires vs radials on the street?
One of the well known street rod builders was describing a conversation he had with a client wanting to build a '37 Chevy. The client said he wanted it to ride and have the look of a Mercedes (Mercedes leather on the seats etc). The builder said all he could think of while the client was talking was telling the client "Then buy a new Mercedes. This is a Hot Rod for Christ sakes!!!!"
It's not just the look of musclecars. It's the sounds, the ride quality, or lack thereof that make them special.
Kudos on bias ply's. Radials are bad enough but the asian tires, especially the Nittos, speedos or Dorritos whatever you call them look worse yet.
