I don't have any recent experience with those.

Although, using the old rolling through water trick would probably show you if the bias plies were correctly inflated.
Above sounds intriguing... Me no know what it means... tell me more. What is the old "rolling through water" trick?

Down my list of things to do is to replace my current radial tires. Although I love the bias tires look, with super wide white walls, I have heard that they wander and can ride really rough, so I might stick with radials, but intend to possibly get white walls and go up one size in the rear (I currently have 175 and would like 185). I do not want wider tires, just a hair taller, so tire fils the wheel well up to the first curved line. When I get closer to this project I will pick your brains on height, as well as how it will affect my rpm, gas mileage and overall performance of roadster. Right now RPM running high so a hair taller tires shoudl drop it a bit down, which would probably be a good thing in my case.

But for now suffice to say that NO I did not touch the tires or tire pressure....
