A large part of what makes radial work better , is their ability to function at lower air pressure than a bias ply tire. Fluid filled tires, while they may be inflated to the same pressure as an air-filled tire, have the distinct disadvantage of fluids lack of "compres-ablity"
An air filled tire inflated to, let's say, 12 PSI, will sag more than a fluid filled tire at the same pressure. To get a fluid filled tire to sag as much, you need to under-inflate them to well below recomended PSI for a bias ply tire, and to the very minimum on a radial.
My GoodYear Radials are recommended to be used "fluid-free".
Guess it's like any number of things......As many opinions as there are people. John
