The Great Debate: Radial vs. Bias
There’s more to it than just getting the right size tire. You should take tire construction taken into account, there are two types of tires – Bias and Radials.
Radial Tires
To increase structural integrity, radial tires are constructed with perpendicular polyester plies and crisscrossing steel belts underneath the tread. This construction provides a smooth ride and extends the life of the tire.
Used for: Long-haul towing: travel trailers, toy haulers, larger boats and livestock

Bias Tires
A bias tire’s construction consists of internally crisscrossing nylon cord plies at a 30 to 45-degree angle to the tread center line. This design gives the tire a tough and rugged build and increases sidewall puncture resistance.
Used for: Local applications: Construction, agriculture, marine, utility applications
