Bolters,

I am debating on which route to go with tires...bias ply or radial. Any discussion or assistance with the decision would be great! I have been going through the "Search" and reviewing old discussions.

My truck will not be a daily driver since i commute with wife and son (3 years old) with We one on the way in June. Wife and 2 car seats won't fit in cab as much as i wish that we all could.

Truck: 1951 Chevy 3100 (as seen in pics below)
Upgrades/changes: Lowered/dropped front axle 4", disc brakes on front with upgraded dual master cylinder.
Rims: stock 15"
Tire size: Wide white walls- G78-15 or p215 75 R15
Goal: Enjoy truck and take for local trips with fellow bolters, wife or son when complete. Keep a few extra $$ in pocket if possible.

Questions:
1. Since it will not be a daily driver, will the bias ply tires get flat spots that i will have issues with every time i drive it?
2. If you get flat spots, do they smooth out shortly after driving?
3. Is it worth starting with bias ply and later changing to radials if i don't like the way they ride?

Thoughts,

Chris
