(Jacob & Grace) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 10:22:00 PM PST US From: "Jacob & Grace" Subject: RV8-List: 6 " tires anyone? --> RV8-List message posted by: "Jacob & Grace" I am convinced I will have to put 6 " tires on my 8. Has anyone done this easily? Since it will fly mostly in the Yukon where there is only one paved runway it will be flying into poorly maintained gravel and dirt most of the time. Some of these Yukon gofers have a propensity for open clearings, runways are especially preferred, and 1/2 of them make craters that a small tire would fit into nicely. Short of fitting belt fed .22 cal wing guns and doing pre-touch down straffing runs this is the next best safety measure.
