I checked previous threads and couldn't find answers to this problem. Just bought a 96 Thunderbird. New front tire was just installed by vendor. It is a 110 80x18 ME Z6 Metzler radial. Rear tire also needs replacing soon - 150 80x16 ME Z2 is on there now but apparently this tire is no longer made in that size by Metzler. What do I do now? I need to match rear to front so need a Metzler. Also need to match radial to radial. Is there another radial in the Metzler line that would mate up with it? Bias belt seem to be quite available in these sizes but I would then have to switch over entirely to bias, buy two new tires and scrap (try to sell) the new ME Z6 front. What are the opinions out there on radial vs. bias for Thunderbirds? What have you found as the best tire combo on your Tbird? If I have to switch over entirely and buy two new tires what suggestions do you have? Brand, size, bias or radial? Appreciate the help. Thanks
