I put them on our LS6 Chevelle (will post pics later). The tire is a radial. Period. The only thing bias ply about it is the vanity. They’re wonder tires and ride like modern radials because they are modern radials. Only issue is that they don’t smoke well

That's funny & so true...Reminds me of when I was 16 and searched out a set of Kelly Supercharger E-70-15 tires for my '69 Z/28 because a guy at our High School had them on a '68 Camaro that would do crazy smokey burn-outs. I learned later it wasn't the tire brand as much as the gearing/wheel speed. I had 4.10 gears and he had an auto with hi-way gears. He'd brag that he'd hit 80mph plus on speedo while doing a "burn-out", riding the brakes of course. The little 302 wasn't as torquey but way quicker! Good Times circa '82.
