radial vs bias !!



I need help selecting a type of BIAS tire for my truck Ford F100 1957, I have already the radial P215/75R15 and I'd put WIDEWALL but I do not understand the lettering

Thank's for your help

Allen

It's a little confusion, but I will try to understand how it works it should not be too difficult!

But if anyone has had the experience of making the change, I would appreciate to know the result or a picture would be even better.

Very appreciate Maltman

Right on! Now that you know what you are looking for, I would price Coker tire, maybe a few bucks difference? Awesome service from Universal, its getting harder and harder to find nowadays. I will remember them next time
