bias ply on back and radials in front
bias ply on back and radials in front I've heard some say it's horrible, lots of lane walk
some say very minimal lane walk
and some say, put a tube in it and it doesn't have a problem
any body with personal experience?
thanks in advance

A little "floaty", but not that bad.
I think that it mostly depends on how much air you're running in the rears, and your suspension setup.
Mine would always "wag" the rear end a little bit going through the traps, but nothing uncontrollable, unless you overcorrect or something. I always just held the wheel straight and the car went straight.
Best thing for you to do would be to have a little more air in the Bias-Plys to begin with, then let some air out until you feel comfortable with them.
Oh, and don't try to take turns sharp.

With tubes and pretty decent air pressure i never had a problem in a 3200 lb nova.
i would wiggle a little on the big end when i let off at the lights but nothin to scary.
Just make sure like Doubt it said more air pressure is better to start.

all depends what you are used to driving.
i would say that my current combo of a bias ply up front and a radial out back drives a lil hairy compared to the combo you are referring.
done it for years.... some setups are worse than others walking around. the road has a lot to do with it as well.
