My 46 half ton needs new tires to replace the Coker bias plys that have been on the rig for the past five years. The truck is my local daily driver— even through our Montana winters. (It does great in the snow). I'm on a budget and have noticed the military tires are about the best deal around— both the FIRESTONE 600-16 NDT 6 ply and the even more affordable SPEEDWAY Military Tires 600-16. Both seem to be 6 ply.
Any thoughts on how these would ride, look, etc? I haven;t found any photos of them on a 40s or 50s Stovebolt.
There are many threads about various radial options— the Grantland Milestar or Michelin 215/85r16s. I guess I'm hesitant about then not fitting well and being unsafe.
Any input on the military tires or other affordable (plus safe and decent-looking) would be much appreciated.
PS- The people on this forum seem to be about the best group of folks I've even run into. Wish you all lived closer.
Daily driver 1946 Chevy 1/2 Ton
