Trying to sort out my front tires for my build.
On the rear I have a set of Hoosier Quick Time 15x 22.5 tires.
For the front I have some vintage welded wire wheels with some 5.25/5.50x17 beat up tires.

Do I stay Bias ply? or try to find a set of bias look alike radials?
 
Depends on how much you're gonna drive it! I had bias tires on the old Daytripper & all was good in fair weather but.. if it rained you better be paying attention (especially on uneven roads)! [ddd:eek::eek:[ddd

Generally speaking, never mix bias plies and radials... though it's often done on drag cars, not a great idea for the street.

Also, consider Alberta vehicle regs. I'm not familiar with them, but you might fail inspection or find yourself in violation, neither of which are a good thing...
