    These are the largest tires I could find for a 6" rim. There may be some that are larger in diameter but they are also much wider and width causes a lot of drag for little or no improvement on the ground. This tire comes in two versions. One with a full set of treads and one that is considerably lighter and has a lot of the rubber removed from the tread. http://www.desser.com/pc_combined_results.asp?pc_id=3F1FE0C9AD1D4CADBD51347914A186EF Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=453223#453223

    Subject: Bracing the tailwheel
    From: B Young <byoungplumbing@gmail.com>
    Without bracing the lower vertical stabilizer the side loads from the tail wheel will overstress the attachment of the lower vertical stabilizer where it attaches to the steel ring on the end of the tail boom. With that in mind if you could take some (some have used round tube,,, I used some 3/16. X 1 inch alum stock). Place it between the attach point of the lower vertical brace wires and just below center on the steel ring on the end of the tail boom. Use a small bolt in place of one of the rivets called for. Put one on each side. This will triangulate the lower vertical stabilizer against side load movement preventing breakage. Boyd Young Mkiii Utah

    These tires ( Buffed smooth) are actually about 4 pounds lighter than the 800 x6 that I currently have on my plane. They will also make your wallet a lot lighter as well.

    I agree. Doubt I'd pay that much money for someone to wear the tread off my tire. I have run 8x6 air trac ribs for many, many hours and made many, many landings. Still have a lot of life left in them. I don't notice the weight. Have enough horses note to have to worry about a couple pounds here and there. I run 6 psi in mine without screws, but the MATCO rims grab much better than the rims Larry C is using. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama From: owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Larry Cottrell Sent: Friday, February 26, 2016 10:42 AM Subject: Re: Kolb-List: Re: another video These tires ( Buffed smooth) are actually about 4 pounds lighter than the 800 x6 that I currently have on my plane.
