[quoteNice Maule Piperboy. Take care with 26" tudra tires on pavement runways][/quote]

Thanks, I just got then 26" Alaskan's on this week and have done a total of 4 grass landings and am somewhat dreading my first tar landing for the reason you mentioned.

What would you estimate the pressure should be on them as a compromise for landing on both grass and ta? the manufacturer lists a minimum of 8PS and a MAX of 20PSI, i have them at 14 right now for no other reason than i figured that was about in the middle of the range. I usually fly the Maule at 400 under gross for most flights
