Just don’t wait too long to make the
rotation. I had planned to do that, but when I removed the tires, they
were worn too badly on the outer edge to be safe even with really good tread on
the inside.

Subject: [LML] Re: Rotating main
tires on IVP
The short
answer is...yes. I have done so and am still operating with my original tires
at 600+ hours. If I had not rotated the tires, they would have had to have been
changed at around 450. Of course the tires must be removed and reversed on
their respective rims. Moving the left wheel to the right side will not help.
Hi All,
Our main landing gear
tires have more wear on the outer edges and the inner edges look much
newer. I am guessing this is because this is where the wheels hit the
pavement before the weight settles down on the gear and the tires become flat
against the pavement...
So my question is, can
you rotate the main tires so that I can start getting some wear on the inside
edges (now the outside edges on the other main gear)?
