Which begs the question of whether the tires would actually work to 
designed specs on the front of a Corvair. Oh, I guess that doesn't 
matter here -- "the daily driver (modern non-vair)".

I've always been told that radials "are" the low rolling resistance 
tires (compared to bias-ply) -- talk to Econo-Run winners and their 50 
psi inflation pressures -- or maybe just mount four of the high pressure 
mini-spares (not recommended).
