Bias Ply Construction
Bias ply tire construction is a method that was used from the 1900's through the 1970's on passenger cars and light trucks. Bias ply tires feature ply cords that run at a 45 degree angle to the bead, and overlap in a crisscross pattern, depending on how many ply layers are used. This creates a strong tire, but bias ply tires have a tendency to follow breaks or ruts in the pavement. Bias ply tires are the most authentic choice for classic car restorations and traditional hot rod builds. Coker Tire offers a huge variety of bias ply tires for many applications.

Product Questions & Answers

These will fit, but we do not recommend them for your car. It is best to run a radial tire on that range of the Lincoln Continental. We suggest you either replace the current size 225/75R15 or go to a 235/75R15 which would be the replacement size for an L78-15.
