First, I should say that I haven't found any radial tires that look proper, but I should also add that I think radial tires perform a LOT better than bias ply tires.
I'm probably going to have to replace the tires on my TD. (Tyres?) Has anyone tried radials?
More to the point, I believe TCs had tires of approximately 29 inches in diameter, and the ones on my TD are 25.5" in diameter. I would think that a larger diameter tire would act like a lower ratio rear axle, as long as it still looked appropriately narrow. In fact, the larger diameter tires should look even better from the side, too.
Anyone?
