Kolbers,

I bought a pair of Dresser Tundra tires. Once on the rims and inflated they were only about 19.5 inches tall. There was a Desser rep at our annual spring Trade Show, at the Anchorage Airport. I inquired about the inflation height of the tires. He recommend “Stretching” the tires. He told me to increase the air press for awhile, and “stretch” the tires.
My rims are rated to 30 lbs and the tires claim a maximum of 25 lbs. So I increased the air pressure to 30lbs and the tires are now 20 inches tall, laying in the garage; my project is not flying yet.
The smoothed version of the tire sounds nice, but was not available when I bought mine, and is a lot more expensive. I wonder if the tires were normal inflated and working under a load if they would stretch more?

Fly safe,

Nick Cassara

607AK hopes to fly in 2014
