1941 Olds Tires

I have bias ply tires on my car, has anyone changed their tires to radials?
My question is did radials change the steering or ride?

Talk to Coker Tire. Also remember radials stress the wheels differently. Back in the 1970s when radials became well known, wheels were stamped if they were suitable for radials.

Should ride better if the same size is used...not low profile. Handling should improve.

X2 on that. Stay close to the original size and you should do fine. Welcome to CO.
