Oscar,I have a theory regarding the tubes that I live by. When I replace a tire I alsoreplace the tube. Then I keep the old tube around so I have a spare one. Thisis my insurance policy that I will never need it, cause as sure as I don'treplace it or don't keep the old one near by I will get a flat. As far as the tires go, I think I would elect to install the other landing gearand spoke wheels you showed us the other day
It would look very cool withthem.--------Scott LiefeldFlying N11MS since March 1972Steel TubeC-85-12Wire WheelsBrodhead in 1996Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Life is good!

Gentlemen of Brodhead, do you have 100 LL to sell to us? I've only briefly followedthe chatter here but have not heard mention of fuel availability. We're withChapter 64 in Cahokia, IL. AKA Scrounge Dawg Aviation. Restoring a early '70'sGrega/Piet. It should be there by next year. (That's what we said in 2011)So a couple of us are coming up in C-150's then on to the Mecca.To fuel up there would save us a hop to KEFT.Jeff WilsonSt. LouisAlso building a Piet, fuse. & wings framed. A-65 power.Sent from my iPhone________________________________________________________________________________Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2013 08:39:06 -0600Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Life is good!

Hi Steve - You'd think cushions would improve the situation. She's tried severaldifferent iterations but it hasn't really made a difference. She can lastabout 30 minutes in the front seat. I'm afraid the nature of the front seat issuch that she'll never be truly comfortable. Other people handle it ok. I raised the front seat the 1/2" to humor her. It costs nothing.--------Kevin "Axel" PurteeRebuilding NX899KPAustin/San Marcos, TXRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Life is good!
