    NOOOOOO! They sucked back then and still do. They are known to flop around when used on radials, due to the flexible sidewalls.

    RE:portawalls

    I remember those crazy things from when I was a kid. It was a chore getting them to settle in just right,many inflations and deflations, trial and error. No fun when all we had was a hand pump:rolleyes:

    If you drive fast for long time they will sling apart and you have to make stop to get the remainder off because the tire is way outta balance. With radials they dont touch at the bottom. Check ol' chebby's post on diamond back!
