Instead of our normal Mains 15-600-6 tyres which aren’t as readily available as ...... 600-6, have many/any fitted the 600-6 tyres on their RV10.? From a previous VAF topic, the height of 15-600-6 is listed as fourteen and three quarter inches and the 600-6 are seventeen and three quarter inches, so the aircraft would sit one and half inches higher on the 600s. If the nose wheel was left standard size, prop clearance would be slightly reduced. Also the wheel fairings would have to be adjusted to suit if the tyre size was changed. 600-6 tyres and tubes are much more common and so a better cost as well. Comments appreciated.
