Coker makes the Firestones in both radial and bias ply. They only deal in the Firestones however.

If you're looking for a Goodyear, Kelsey is where you want to look. They only produce the Goodyear tires in a bias design, no radials are offered in a Goodyear....at this time.

We run BFG Radial TA's on both of our classic daily drivers. They are inexpensive and it's an okay tire. The advantage they have is that they still make sizes that have become obsolete with most other brands. Only issues I've had with them over the years is when they get to be about 7-8 years old, if I haven't wore them out yet, I've had a couple of them develop knots. So I tend to start questioning them when they start getting some age on them. Especially here in AZ where summer temps are 110+, constant sunshine, and the blacktop is like an oven. I've seen more tire failures in the 12 years I've lived here than my entire life anywhere else.
