Question Quick question on hawgs

I'm looking for a set of 33 in tires for my 79 bronco. I was looking toward BFG muds since at the time I could get them dirt cheap new, but now that fell through. From everything I've heard, ground hawgs seem to be the best wearing aggressive tires around. This truck is my daily driver, but will see some aggressive off roading through out the year. My biggest concern is the bias ply construction of the tires. Will this effect my ride or wear more than if I got the radials. Looking for personal opinions on these tires as I can't afford to drop the money and be dissatisfied. Thanks in advance.

bias hawgs are one of the very few bias tires that wear like iron. You'll be fine.

I think you may be thinking of the radial version. Those only come in really big sizes. One of my other concerns was that the max inflation pressure for the tires is listed at 30 psi on the manufacturers web site. Wouldn't this be too low for driving on the street? Thanks again.
