7.25x13 bias ply tires!

Bias Ply tires are fine on nice flat roads. The problem I have found is that if the road surface has imperfections (like grooves worn in by heavy truck traffic), the tires will find these imperfections and dart all over the place.

It can be very scary.

I heard that too! A friend of mine has a very nice unrestored 1955 DeSoto Diplomat with a L6 and three on the tree and he drives on bias ply tires. If you cruise in ordinary traffic it's ok but you need to observe the road all the time.
