It's been a while since this subject came up, but I've had two flat tires on landing due to a pinched tube, and learned years ago that if I need to keep a minimum of 25 psi in my tires...I fill them up to 50 PSI and check them every couple of months, especially as the temps start dropping toward winter. I also put Slime in the tires to minimize the chance of any kind of air leak doing that to me again. It seems to have worked out fine, as I've not had a flat tire since.
There was some concern voiced on the net that my tires would be unbalanced, but I've seen no sign of that at all. I put all new tubes and tires on 1JF when I refurbed it, and it's had a slow leak ever since on one side. About a month ago I put some Slime in it, and it's still holding 50 psi. Something to consider. See y'all at the Gathering... -- Mark Langford ML at N56ML.com http://www.n56ml.com
