Re: How to lift my wrangler
Nylon was one of the first materials used for belts. I hear people used to
complain about the 'thump' for the first mile or so but it never bothered
me. Perhaps it was because I was so happy not to be riding (wallowing) on
bias ply tires or maybe because the roads on the way to the main drag were
so bad.
More likely their competitors used something else and it was advertising
hype.

Re: How to lift my wrangler
Does everyone now use steel? It seems that for a while they were using all
kinds of different fibers.

Hi Bill,
Probably. Steel belted radials work great on the street, Off-road,
and racing, nylon bias ply are best: http://www.rockparts.com/tires.html

It may have something to do with the huge tire farms that have crept up
around the country, causing havoc with water supplies, fire departments,
etc. Apparently the old ones rotted away more gracefully.
