I've been reading with much interest, the recent threads about Barry's nose gear collapse, and have been considering a Grove nosewheel. While I thought I understood the wheel & tire sizes, it's clear I don't. My main tires are marked 5.00-5, and the nose tire is marked 11x4.00-5. What do these numbers tell me? I thought the 4.00 meant I had a 4" nose wheel, but Grove suggested a wheel that they describe as 500x5 Type III. Does this mean my Van's supplied tire won't fit a Grove wheel?
I'm so confused!
