Banjoman30 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I am looking at buying some TSLs for my rig, but I am stuck wondering radial or bias ply... I am 75% on road and 25% off. I love the aggressive look of the bias but am worried about the increased tread wear. Any input would be beneficial.. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hytekrednek Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 If you are on the road a majority of you time then you should always stick with a radial tire. That is just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 ^Agreed. The trade off isn't generally worth the noise, traction, mileage, comfort, handling, etc if it spends a lot of time on the road. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banjoman30 Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Do the bias ply tires wear faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyC Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Not necessarily, but they go out of "round" very easily. Meaning your first few miles of driving may include a flat spot from sitting over night. They are very flexible and conform to rocks well, but bias ply may as well be off road only tires as the trade off's out weigh the benefits on road.

Banjoman30 Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Will the 32x11.50 radials fit with minor tbar cranking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattV Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Will the 32x11.50 radials fit with minor tbar cranking? I did lots of t bar cranking with 3 inch lift springs in the rear and I had to do some light trimming to fit 32x11.5x15s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
