wheels & tires

[rayfink]

Can you run bias ply tires on aluminum wheels? cause i just bought some 16" aluminum wheels that i got off of a 2004 ranger and was wanting to run 7.50-16 power kings but i noticed on the back side of the wheel it said radial tires only can anybody tell me why

You'll probably get a lot of opinions on this, but just go to your local tire shop and ask the real experts. You could trust the "self proclaimed experts" here, but why risk your life on it. Sure most things posted on here are right but loose the tires on the highway, loose your life (maybe)

never seen that on a wheel before myself. i have, however, used tubes on aluminum rims with both radial and bias tires.

i ran 31 inch tsl bias plys for three years, without any issues, but i do know that your never supposed to mix any radials with bias-plys, because the heigths differ with the tire construction. either 4 radials, or 4 bias-plys, just my two cents.
