Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: 5.00X5 Cleveland wheelsI put 5.00 X 5 wheels and brakes on my Piet with split axle gear, and, though I haven't flown it, they look to be in proportion to the airplane. If a Piet is too big for 5.00 X 5s, then I can't imagine what aircraft would be small enough. I suspect they may bog down in soft ground a bit easier than the 6.00 X6s but probably not by much.Matt Paxton________________________________________________________________________________
