Question Another big tire ????

Here's my ???

I drive a max of 7,000 miles a year.
I was thinking of getting bias tires, to save some $$$.
What is the down side of the bias, vs, the radials?
I know the bias will get flat spots on cold days, because I
Have them now.
Is that the only bad thing about them?
I was thinking of getting the Trxus in a 15X39.5X16
Any info?

Flat spots, less mileage outta them, usually more out of round as compared to a radial. BUT they are typically much tougher, too. If thats all the miles you do ya can't go wrong with a bias. The trxus looks like a decent all around tire to me.
