A new Goodyear Flight Custom 3 is a large tyre. The 500x5 does not fit in an
ASW20, which has more room than the Jantar gear. The doors of the 20 won't
fully close.
Soon to find out if FC3 fits ASW27. Plenty of room in ASH26, probably the best
tyre for SLSPs.
While you're investigating tyres, consider the Airstop butyl inner tubes
available from Aircraft Spruce in the US, probably also at dot AU.

Thanks Macca.
That is handy information. I suspected that
there might be variations, between brands, so it is good to have this
confirmed.
