it’s funny how every time a tricycle gear question is asked the response avoids the question and talks about tail wheel. Look at all the great tricycle bush planes - 182s and 206s galore and very capable. The Zenith 750 is tricycle and will take off shorter than. Most kitfoxes stock vs stock. - anyway, I’ve seen nose wheel mods for bigger tires on the GlaStar - it can be done with some welding and an axle for a 6:00 if needed. If anyone is still interested I can post some pics. I’m having one made for a GlaStar now - to support 8:50 mains. With as light as the nose in on a kitfox the main consideration is maintaining the deck angle with larger mains. That’s what is needed IMHO is taller nose as much as anything wider.
