Bias Ply Tyres will be a pig to drive on road and wear very quickly. I'd never consider a bias ply tyre if i was going to drive it on the road more than driving to the trail and back. Just my opinion.

If you plan to see some road miles I;d go the Radial claw.

I've got radial claws and would recommend them. I have looked at bias claws but as the others have said they handle like crap on road.

I'm running bias claws. Horrible noise and vibrations on road, great off road. I only drive the jeep to the bush and off road so I live with it. I would put radials on if I was buying new tyres except for the lack of side lugs
