Thanks for the feature request. I think this use case may be out of scope for what ion-radio should handle. My main concern with this is changing the radio to display a custom icon removes any indication that the component is a radio, which may result in a poor user experience.

It might make sense to make this a custom component in your app where the component internally deals with a simple state (active button/item). That way you can deal with state once and then abstract away the rest of the details.

I agree with you. Lets stick with state.
