My problem with the Radial T/As is that they are everywhere. Probably 2/3rds of the cars at any show will have them installed. I'm using the Firestone firehawks on my little truck & they are fine. The el camino is running Yokohama AVID S/Ts' and I really like them. My general impression is that they ride quieter and handle better than the previous T/As'.
