Raimo,
I replaced the original tyre with a Goodyear Flight Special II 7.00 - 6,
recommended by a local aircraft repairman. It's a bit narrower and much more
robust.

Betreff: Europa-List: main tyre
All Mono-operators
I have an original main tyre which is
435216 Titan Turf Glide 8.00-6 with 4 plies.
It is propably not aircraft quality but I have been happy with it. Only
problem is it is a bit too broad and it has a little contact to brake when
landing (I have overpressurized it).
I wanna update it to new slightly narrower one.
What do you think what is the best choice in quality in market?
My factors are first of all safety and handling, not so much price and
durability.
Thanks, Raimo
