As I recall, the only reason to use spacers is if the plexi sits below the fiberglass.

Be sure to add two one inch biased glass strips around the external frame to
prevent the flange line appearing out of the paint in a hindered hours or
so.

I did use spacers but thinking back I wish I would have let the plexi sit
low and carve a little of the cabin down to accept the thickness of the
glass tape around the windows. That way it wouldn't have been such a big
job to transition the hump out of the glass tape around the windows to the
cabin.

The purpose of the spacers is to fill a gap. Sounds like that is not
your issue. Leave it I say!

No washers, just the thicker Weld-On 45 to fill any gaps.

No washers and no Weld-On. I used Hysol
(http://shop.lancair.com/inventoryD.asp?item_no=9360-QT&CatId={992B7B06-E01B
-4918-BB0C-79343CDB7869}
adding just a little flox to thicken as required (this is enough Hysol for 2
or 3 RV-10s). I used clamps to make the glass panels flush with the canopy
cut outs, letting it sit for 24 hours before removing the clamps. The Hysol
is full strength after a week or so. I did add a narrow two bid layup over
the window/canopy junction to prevent the window paint cracking problem.

I'm looking at Michelin Aviator tires.
My question is Leakguard tubes or Michelin tubes and why?
Also is Michelin good or bad.

I don't know the answer to your question, but it got me to thinking ....
which may not be a good thing.
I wonder why we can't use the tire puncture sealer in a can to seal the
standard aircraft tube? You should be able to use one can to seal all
three tubes. You could distribute the sealer inside the tube really
well before installing the tubes in the tire.
Also Michelin makes Airstop tubes. I think the Leakguard are Aero Classic.

Leakguard work fine. They may be sourced through Desser's recap division.
Depends on what objective is for tire. Most cost effective, or top of the
line, what ever perceived benefit that is, or something else. If you want
aramid belted, top of the line Goodyear is the only one. If you want new but
low cost, Condor(by Michelin) through Desser is probably best buy. Or if you
are okay with recap, Desser on W coast or Wilkerson on E coast are your
sources. Van supplies Specialty Tires(aka McCreary) which seem to be
favorite of flight schools.
