I'm ready to install pants and fairings and am considering his for the next purchase. Thanks Dallas Benham Southern Indiana ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:14:41 AM PST US From: "Lovelace, Malcolm" Subject: RE: Tailwind-List: wheel pants --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Lovelace, Malcolm" I bought Van's. They fit nice and they give you everything including the drawings that show you how to put them on. The only draw back is they cost more, but you get what you pay for. > -----Original Message----- > From: Dallas Benham [SMTP:dlbenham@smithville.net] > Sent: Tuesday, January 07, 2003 12:50 PM > To: tailwind-list@matronics.com > > --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Dallas Benham" > > > Hi guys: > > Does anyone have any pros or cons about Sam James' wheelpants.

I chose them because they looked like they would produce more lift, (flatter tlaterallyraly). That's pretty minor. I guess I just like the looks of them better than Van's, (RV-6A next door hangar). They are, "pressure recovery", which looks nice, might add speed. Van's are too but, Sam's seem a little more so. The workmanship was good and all fit well. Instructions and drawings are good.

They fit real good and create less drag. Be sure to split them front to back. Gives you a much nicer/tighter fit around the wheel/tire assembly.
