    I'll be looking to get a pair for my '32 when the time comes. They sure are a pretty tire!

    Got them on my 34 Truck and love them. No problems and Cody is a great guy. They are 235/75R15's.

    X2 - I beat the hell out of a pair of Hurst pie crust recaps 8.5 x 28's. Can't believe they lasted as long as they did - I'll be buying more.

    Okay all these tires look great! However I am confused about something. I love the HURST rears but they are radials and i noticed quite a few of you running bias-ply fronts. I thought that was a no-no! The threads I've seen on here seem to have people complaining about the ride and handling when that is done. Is there something about recapped radials that makes this more doable? Just wondering...

    I'm running their ribbed front runners that are "capped" raidials as well on both cars. no problems at all,other than the cheaters being a little hard to balance. I would not hesitate to drive them anywhere.

    36 pancho.....what kind of problems have you had balancing the cheaters....I am having the same problem with one of mine.....it want 5 oz of weight on the outside which is too much in my opinion.....Cody said to lug-centric balance them which I am going to try.
