    Any words of advice (other than DON"T get bias plys) from anyone?

    Thanks you all,

    FAITH (heading out to work - yuk)
    1-BLACK WALLS! Don't even think of white walls on that beautiful roadster.

    2-ANY tread pattern that appears period.

    JMO, but I think you will be back to radials before too long but, in the meantime, satisfy your curiosity.
    Good luck! Jim

    Have a friend who bought 4 bias ply with 3 inch wide whites, and he swapped them out for the radials. He has 4 almost new 15 inch 3 inch WW bias ply tires with rims and selling for $300 including rims. He didn't have them on a hiboy. I want to get tires of the same specifications, but not bias ply.

    If you are interested or want to talk to him about his experience I can give you his number. He lives in Maryland so it won't be a local call, but could save you some money.
