You mentioned you fly an RV14, which I think the TD version uses the spring rod gear that goes up into the engine mount. If so you may be well served by buying a more expensive tire. Sure, retreads work great and so do Condors. But there is a dynamic element to satisfactory service life when it comes to the tapered rod gear. The rod gear is prone to shimmy and any external input that can contribute to exciting shimmy should be minimized. I found on my RV-3 that good old Condors, Aero Classics, Specialty Tires and retreads were not quite as balanced or geometrically tight as the top-tier Michelin Airs or Pilots and Goodyear FC IIIs. I fought shimmy long and hard until I finally gave in and bought a set of Michelin Pilot main gear tires (with new Air Stop tubes). The shimmy went away and it was like magic. I had wished I had gone that route years before. Naturally if you flat spot the tires all bets are off.
Now if you have spring gear like the RV-8 then go for the trainer tires or retreads since that gear doesn't have the same resonance issue as the tapered rod gear.
And no matter the tire choice, please use any tube other than the Leak Guard brand buytl. My preference being Michelin Air Stop tubes.
