Is this radial or bias ply? I have a 2006 Sportster with the stock Dunlops which I believe are bias ply

There are bias ply. I have one on my Harley and it works just as good as Dunlop

6 Ply...It was hard to put on cause of the bead is really strong. Great Tires! Recommend installing it with a tire machine.

It's actually a dual bend. I believe integras (GSR models for sure) had dual bend from the factory. That's probably one reason why it says both.

Mine are 6 ply and 3 ply. I pull a 21 ft bass boat on a regular basis. These tires last forever in you rotate them.

no! it is a extra strong 2 ply tire. i run it on a 2,000# toro diesel 223d groundmaster. it is the same tire that came on it new in 2000. i am very pleased with them!

Really interesting hyperlink article posted by Bruce, from competitvecyclist. Personally I can't get my head around a smaller contact patch on a larger tire, but I'm no one to argue with these guys. I used to ride sportbikes. everything equal (same tire model), we assumed we were getting a larger contact patch, with the larger model. That's why we went for larger tires (same aspect ratio of course). but interesting article!!

The tires I received are marked four ply on the side wall. When I mounted them on the wheels they sure felt stiff like four ply tires. The original turf tires I took off have a much lighter casing and are not nearly as heavy. Whatever they are, get a set and you won't be sorry.

Yes it is. Bias tires are almost a thing of the past. Very few options available. Radial is the way to go.

It is a "S" rated tire which means Standard Load, pretty much the equivalent of a 4 ply rating. It is meant for lighter vehicles, not for heavier trucks.

Today's load range/ply ratings do not count the actual number of body ply layers used to make up the tire's internal structure, but indicate an equivalent strength compared to early bias ply tires. Most radial passenger tires have one or two body plies, and light truck tires, even those with heavy-duty ratings (10-, 12- or 14-ply rated), actually have only two or three fabric plies, or one steel body ply.

I don't remember what the ply spec was but the tires performed amazing in the mixed mud and rock of Washington state! I'm really happy with these tires for what they costed

No, them have a different sidewall than these. These have the traditional sidewall. Good tires tho !!

They are the same. Just order two. One note: during installation look for the arrow on the sidewall of the tire since these tires are directional

I believe that the "D" stands for bias ply tire. in other words, it is not a radial tire. 75R = radial, 75D = bias ply.

They are looking pretty good after 6 months. I did have a flat from a thorn, so I installed a liner inside the tire. All in all. I'm satisfied. I also have a 29er.

Nick, I have it on my 225/65R17, if that helps. Needed to heat the cover to increase flexibility, then use silicone spray on tire to aid installation. Once on and settled, the cover can be removed and replaced (to check tire pressure, etc.) with very little trouble. I like this cover better than the clunky plastic one.
