Disc Brakes.....NYB help......and WhiteWalls



Well Steve, I guess that makes 2 of us because I totally agree with you. Any Imperials that I've had that started with bias plys didn't stop as well, made a lot of noise & very uncertain feeling going into turns & also seemed to follow every little irregularity in the road. At some speeds, they did ride a little softer, but that wasn't worth all the other trade offs.

It's the most popular opinion with me.  Bias ply tires do provide much
better smoky burnouts but at those prices and in am Imperial that seems
to be kind of silly.  Other than that I see no benefit to them.
