At what tire pressure were you running the bias plies, and at what pressure are you running the radials? My two cents on this boils down to: radials are probably a better choice if you drive the car _a lot_ . If you don't drive it much, and originality is your primary concern, then the bias tires are likely the way to go. -Kle.
