I don't know about the radial tires. A good tire shop should know what difference that makes if any. http://chevy.tocmp.com/1955truck2shop/55ctsm0314.htm

The camber is not adjustable unless you want to bend the axle. I set the toe in a little less then specks with radial tires. 0 to 1/16 in. toe-in.
