Is there an economical 16" radial 3"wide or wider whitewall available? Getting close to putting the '41 tudor on the road!

"Economical" is a relative term, ain't none of them really cheap.

i got my diamond backs through the white wall candy store in orange. for a good radial tire for a regular car your going to spend around $130-$150 each (for that size 16"), a bias ply whitewall tire is around $130 each so $195 isn't that far off for a whitewall radial.
 
I use lucas classic tire in long beach california,they are cheap and have a huge variety and there service is amazing.I ordered tires on a monday ,had them at my door tuesday afternoon
 
I just put Diamond Back 215/70R16-3" whitewalls on my '36 coupe and the difference in ride from my old bias plys was phenomenal! They aren't cheap at $224 each but the better ride was worth it!
 
Thanks ya'll. You confirmed pretty much what I had tentatively decided--going with the Diamondback. Usually more is less in the long run! Bill
