HJ460 tracks straight and I can find no fault with her ground manners. She
is an XS tri.
I have significant wear on the outside of the tires after 35 flight hours
however I am hoping that this is due to the significant amount of taxi-ing
prior to flight testing and possibly that the bearings are stiff (require
wearing in). I plan to turn them round and grease them this weekend.
Now to my question. I notice that the 5.00x5 tires in my local aviation
shop have a square profile whereas the tires supplied with the Europa have
a rounded profile. Can I use the square profile or will it cause weird
ground behavior?
What are the "best" tires for the Europe in terms of wear and profile?
(leaving side cost as a consideration)
Many thanks
Will
