The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Modern steel belted radials on '37 wide five wheels

I'm running Coker Excelsior radials on my 32 . . . which were kind of designed to have the look of bias ply tires, with the great improvements of modern tire technology. I'm running them on old wire wheels, so I am running tubes. In every car I've had where I switched from bias ply to radials (variety of brands), I've been super happy with the results. You'll find your car will track a lot better, will handle better, will brake better, will be better in the rain . . . every single aspect is better - period.
