  Radial tire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
By comparison, radial tires lay all of the cord plies at 90 degrees to the direction of travel (that is, across the tire from lip to lip).
As described, a radial tire would not be sufficiently strong and the surface in contact with the ground would not be sufficiently rigid.
First made of tire cord, these belts were later made of steel (hence the term "steel-belted radial") and subsequently aramid fibers such as Kevlar.

 Radial Tractor Tires -- Performance That Counts!, G95-1273-A
Radial tractor tires should be considered as original equipment on new tractors and as replacements whenever tractor tires are being replaced.
Radial tires are heavier than bias-ply tires of equal size, partly because of higher lugs.
Whenever making a tire size or a change to radial tires on an MFWD tractor, remember to maintain the front to rear speed ratio or the advantage of the MFWD may be lost.

 Let The Air Out! Advantages of Properly Adjusted Radial Tire Pressures, AEX-530-94
Tire inflation pressures were set at 24 psi and 22 psi for the inner and outer duals, respectively, for one tractor, and 14 psi and 12 psi for the inner and outer duals, respectively, for the other tractor.
The rear tire pressures were set at 24 psi and a distance of 400 ft was chiseled in 73 sec.
New tire pressure recommendations for radial tires were released by the tire industry in January, 1992 (Armstrong, 1992; Firestone,1992; Goodyear, 1992).

In radials tyres the ply or ply cords are alligned at 90 degrees to the circumference.

 Tire Tread Separations, Defects and Blowouts
Because of the air permeability of steel belted radial tires almost all tires are run underinflated at some time during the course of their lifetime and, as noted, this is usually not observable by the consumer.
Tire manufacturers also reverse engineer their competitors’ products on a continuing basis and are well aware of the composition of tires manufactured by their competitors.
The tire industry has been able to avoid their responsibility to the public for decades by hiding the extent of accidents, injuries and deaths and by hiding internal records which establish the extent of the tread belt separation hazard throughout the industry.

 GMC Motorhome Radial Tire Selection and Recall History
Tire pressures for bias belted tires remained 60 psi with radial tires inflated to 65 psi.
General Tire knew which serial numbers were suspected of being of questionable manufacture quality D load rated radial tires and which ones remained acceptable for use on the GMC Motorhome.
Because of all the confusion in tire pressures and proclaimed unsafe high temperature at the lower pressures that I was using, I purchased SmarTire to monitor both individual tire pressures and temperatures.

As enticing as the BFG Drag Radial tires sounded, however, we were a bit skeptical.
For all dragstrip testing, the tire pressures were set at the factory-recommended psi settings, the engine was warmed up to the same coolant temperature, and the e.t.'s were corrected down to sea level to equalize for differing air temperature, altitude, and humidity.
The existing P225/60R15 tires and the BFG Radial T/A P275/50R15 tires were set to 30 psi, while the BFG Drag Radials were set at 20 psi (factory-recommended Drag Radial psi settings should be between 18 to 22 psi).

 F650 Tire FAQ
This may be why the tubeless radial tires that BMW specifies for the rear wheel of our bikes are so difficult to break the beads loose from the rim.
Summary: you can break the bead with only tire irons; use the slippery tire stuff (or something else but anything free from BMW is good) including when you’re ready to inflate the tire; use something to protect the rims from the tire irons; balancing the wheels with jack stands and the axle works good.
The rear tire was a harder compound than the front and required a little more time per hole and I had to stop the drill and roll the bit around to loosen up the rubber.
