Another Tire Question.......

26" Goodyears are near bullet proof and a solid option that "bridges the gap".

Thanks. Had heard that before and they were in the hunt. I did put some on order with Aircraft Spruce. They are quoting a September delivery so we shall see. At least I could order them there. Dresser just said "Sold Out" and I couldn't do anything. Talked to Heather at Kitfox and she said they are having the same issues; waiting on moving delivery dates.

Spoke with Desser at Oshkosh and September was their best guess for shipments of the 8.50-6 Aero Classic

Thanks for the inputs Rick and Dave. Yeah Sept was the date I was hearing about Desser but a couple places had said that date was moving to the right so the faith just wasn't there. The Goodyears were more but still a third of the 29 Alaska Bush tires and they are tubeless so not worried about shearing off a stem with my inexperience.

Just got off phone with Wag-Aero, 8.50-6 Desser Aero Classic is not in stock even though website says it is.

That seems to be pretty much the norm right now. Either they really don't have what they say is in stock or it just won't let you order it.

I did speak with Lynda the purchasing agent for Wag-Aero ( since they're 30 minutes away) at OSH. If I remember correctly, she was expecting 6 sets of the Aero Classic sometime this month, but 5 sets were already sold. I guess until I have them in my hands, don't know what to expect.

Checked just now and ACS is showing the 8.50-6 Aero Classic in stock for $438 each. Desser is showing $339.95 each. Good luck for those ordering, probably won't be around long.

Ya I saw 27.5 s in stocks at acs.
I called to order them....nice lady helping me went to the stock room to verify they were there. They were so we proceeded to setup the shipping and during that minute or so someone placed a internet order and poof...no more stock....this happened yesterday the 23rd.

Well played
So I'm on the list again.....lol

ACS is showing Aero Classic 800-6 in stock for $176 a tire as of this moment. This is what I run most of the time.
