Re: Radial and Bias Tires.
As far as the ride goes, how do you think it would feel to be goin down the road in those 1930's and '40's cars that had one set of "wishbone" leaf springs on the front and rear axles. But then in '49, Fomoco redesigned the suspension system with front independent suspension and a parallel leaf spring support for the rear, which carried through at least the '70's in full size cars.
I'm not so sure you can do much better to improve the ride without major frame and suspension upgrades.
But, I'm used to the bumps, squeaks and rattles in my old '55. You could always move to a State that has better roads.
