I had the look of highway and mud tires on my '38 when I rebuilt it. They were 750x17 bias-ply and rode very hard. The front wanted to wander over the grooves in the road. I also found out that almost no tire store would deal with my 17 inch 2 piece rims.
I changed to standard 16 inch rims, and 235/85/16 radials. The ride is so much better, no wandering.
