Did anybody try bigger main wheels on RV-10? I thoroughly searched forum but did not find a single hint. I searched Desser and Spruce but did not even find tires with bigger outer diameter suitable for 6x6,0 Groove wheels. I see 17.5/625-6 Retread ($100) and the same size Mishelin ($349). As I understand second digit 625 means 6.25 disc width. Van?s supplies 6.0. Is quarter an inch important in this case?
Should I ask Groove?
Unlike simple and straightforward automotive tires aviation tires specification is more confused.
Finish kit is ordered but not shipped yet. It is not too late to delete wheels & brakes and try to fit bigger wheels compatible with Van?s main legs?
Do I miss anything simple and evident?
Thanks for any advice.
And of course I understand that I won't be able to use stock fairing.
