Hi Jerry, the ride of any radial is just miles softer than any bias tire because of the thin sidewall. It's a little bit deceiving...the 11.00 x 20 that's on there has more than 10" of depth. A stock bias 9.00 x 16 also has 10" of sidewall.
Now if you compare it to an 11.00 x 16 Michelin which has 12" of sidewall...the 11.00 x 16" is definitely a softer ride.
But who needs soft anyway...I mean only grandma wants a soft ride! :)
