Mounted and ready to go. Weather permitting they will get a testing, but fit, and ease of installation exceeded my expectations save for one thing. The air valves could be bent a little less allowing them to clear the rim a wee bit more to better allow an air chuck to fit.
The 06-01571 tire was that same width as 06-00362
The tire you have sent me first had a manufacturer defect. The replacement tire is OK.
This tire I installed on the nose gear of my plane with great difficulty. I have replaced this nose gear before without any problem but this tire was very reluctant to mount on the split wheel. It took several hours, and a hydraulic press. The tire would not move far enough on the first half of the split wheel to allow the two halves of the wheel to come within reach of the bolts that join the halves. I had to use wood working clamps to squeeze them together.
