A while back i posted a wanted ad for 25x11x4 tires.I decided to change plans and go a little different direction. So I purchased a Cleveland wheel and brake kit. My question is what should I mate those with? I have already checked with my mechanic and he said if I wanted to purchase some 26" airstreaks that I would be good to go. My biggest concern with the bush wheels is ware. I'm based at an airport which will be difficult to avoid asphalt (mainly just long taxi runs to get to grass). I'm open to 8.50s up to 29" abw. Also are there an easy stc to go to the 8.50 tire? I came across one that looked pretty simple but it wanted a specific wheel (Hayes maybe?). Any input from you guys that have experience on larger tires would be greatly appreciated.
