Faith: As Joeybsyc said, Bias tires are by "no means as horrid as everyone claims."

I grew up with them. I lived through the years when Radials failed routinely untill they learned to phosphate the steel wire to make the rubber adhear.

You will notice that they have a definite threshold then sliding around corners where radials let go progressively.

When you park over night, they have a "lump-lump-lump" for a few blocks untill they warm up. Heh, in winter it does get annoying.....

Go for it. It will give your ride a little old time flavor. MIZ
