Its that time again. I can't seem to find an old e-mail recommending a tire/tube combo that doesn't leak. I have the Goodyear Flight Custom III and I'm not sure what tubes but the leak relly bad. Refills about every 2 to 3 weeks. Any help would be appreciated.

I put these in 6 months ago and keep checking and they are still at 35 psi (they seem to be better there): This is a cut and paste from my Aircraft Spruce order, so sorry about he formatting.

Michelin Airstops have served me very well in that regard ...

Scot,
Goodyear makes new tubes that don't leak down. I have them in mine and no problems.
Nothing beats there tires for wear.....over 600 landings and zero wear now on my RV6-A.

Another option if you get off pavement or like good handling on pavement, the Desser 380X150X5 tires give better footprint on soft ground. I wouldnt fly anything else...

Forgot to add, the Desser 380 tires are Aero Classic and have a corresponding Desser "no leak" tubes considerably less expensive than the Michelin tubes, FYI
