Those tires have a load rating of 500 pounds!  With two of them you can put 1000 pounds on the mains….are you saying that you always land like a butterfly with sore feet???!!!

Egads!  Yes, it is as Bucky said.  Aero Classic 11-400-5 at 39.95 and TU 11/400-5 tubes at 10.95 (they include a packet of talc).

Randy,

 

I have switched to Desser tires (http://www.desser.com/aerotires.shtml) and I think they are the Aero Classic 400-4.  The next time I go to the airport I will call you.  They wear much better (harder rubber) than Chins.

I have just completed my Annual Condition Inspection on my 360 and am surprised that I need new tires.  I have logged only 80 hours on my most recent set of tires (mains) and have very little tread left on both right and left sides.  I will now purchase another set of tires  but I am not sure if I should get another set of the Cheng Shin tires (around $18 each) or if I should throw more dollars at some better tires, if any are available.  What I am curious about is what options I might have and what any of the other 300 series owners have for tire-wear experience.  The tires are 11x4-5's and I haven't seen that exact size with the other tire manufacturers so maybe I don't understand the numbering scheme.  Any help or experience would be great.
