I bought recaps from Desser at Sun-N-Fun .....they offered a discount
and no shipping. I also bought tubes with 90 degree stems for easier
access through a small hole in the wheel pant.

Just make sure that the retreads will fit under your wheel pants. They have a larger diameter.

Only the Monster Retreads are larger. Their regular Desser retread is
standard TSO size. I've been using them for 10 years on my Mooney...no
issues with room in the wheel wells.

I have not had to change tires yet, but I think Gary Sobeck recommended retreads from Wilkerson Tires http://www.wilkersonaircrafttires.com/
