I want to order 'leak proof' inner tubes for 10.  Vans says nose wheel is 500x5-6.  do i get 500-5 inner tube??? I don't see any 500-6.  main gear is 15x 600-6.  I assume that is different from a standard 600-6??   anyone have experience with the different 'leak' proof brands. michelin quite a bit more expensive.   thanks.  lbb

When it came to replace the tires on my 9 I changed to Michelin Airstop

tubes at the same time, the originals Vans supplied leaked live sieves.  I'd

heard good things about Airstop tubes and I haven't been dissapointed -

after 4 months and many, many landings I recently checked the pressure and

they had barely lost 1 psi in 28.

I just recently replaced my main tires and tubes with Goodyear Flight Custom III 15/6.00-6 and Leak Guard Tubes 15/6.00-6.  I'm not sure about the difference in size but there is a difference in weight capacity between a 6.00 and a 6.00-6.  So far, so good on the tubes but I have only had them for one month.  The tires are defiantly more beefy. 

I bought everything through Desser and received them very quickly.  



Tires and tubes is one area where I really didn't mind spending extra money.  My old tires went almost 300 hours and they say the compound on the Goodyear tires are 20% more wear resistant and the rubber thickness is quite a bit more.  Here is some data that Dresser posts on their site.

Good luck.
