Tires... Radial vs bias

[blucar]

I'm in the process of freshening my '36 up. Tires were on the list because the tires on "Henry" are over 25 years old.
I love radial tires, have been using them on everything except the '36 for the past 30 + years. I have talked to Coker Tire on several occasions during the past two years, I finally pulled the trigger on Thursday.
"Henry" has always had white sidewalls on it, it had white walls when I bought the car in '52.
I decided to go with Coker's Classic, 16" Bias Profile Radial 600R16 3" WW with 16" tubes..
My timing was perfect, The 600R16 tires have been on back order for seven months, they recently got 100 tires in, on Thursday they only had 14 tires left.
Coker has a sale going on through the end of September so I got a pretty good deal on the set of 4 tires..
