				I'm forwarding the following message for a Kitfox builder/owner not on list.
 Contact him at his address below for details.

  Deke -
  
  These tires/tubes in the pic have about 50 hours on them since the pic, 
  and are for sale if anybody on the list is interested. They can reach
  me at jeff.hays(at)bankofamerica.com

  I'm operating off pavement almost all the time, and like the 6.00x6's 
  better for pavement. I did NOT notice any performance difference with
  the big tires. There may be some, but my climb and cruise is pretty
  much the same with either size.
  
  The 8.50's are a bit squirrely on pavement in crosswind conditions, and 
  since I'm flying pretty much entirely off pavement I elected to switch
  back.
  
  Regards,
  Jeff Hays

				Deke,
 
 Is it the 850's he is selling?  If so, how much does he want?

				I have a question or two...  I can't seem to find a good, basic
 explanation of aircraft tire sizes, but maybe someone can point me
 in a good direction.
 
 First, what tire sizes will fit on the 600x6 mainwheels most of us
 have?
 
 Second, what do the numbers mean?  I take it one of them means
 diameter and the other is width, but which is which?  What about
 tire measurements, and tires with three numbers (like 15x6.00-6). 
 Are the dashes, decimal points, and x'es significant?
 
 Anyway, thanks
 Jim in NW FL

				Jim,
 
 Try this link.  It explains the 3 different types of tire sized and gives you about every useful bit of information you would need about most sizes of tires.
