Question:

Expert Reply:
Yes, the two tire sizes are the same with the only difference being the R13 is a radial instead of a bias ply. Radial being the preferred style.
Radial tires are preferred over bias ply tires so I would recommend you go that route. A radial tire flexes more than a bias tire, giving it better ground contact, traction, stability, and tread wear.
A radial tire will normally run cooler than a bias ply tire, especially when the tire is under a load. A tire that runs cooler will last longer.
The part # TTWTRTM1758013C is a radial in the size you need and would be a great choice. It has a higher speed rating of 81 mph.
