Guys:  Ran over some crushed rock taxiing (It looked like Obsidian or 

Flint--Sharp) and blew a main tire.  Had to get a new tire and tube.

The tubes sent from Vans have straight valve stems which are hard to get 

air in.

Built 2nd RV10 with Matco Wheels and Brakes.  They have tubes with 

90-degree stems which are hard to get air in (I put 2.5 inch access 

plates in the wheel pant when built for airing the tires).  Went on line 

to look for a workable tube for both the Grove (Vans wheels) and Matco 

wheels.

Aircraft Spruce has tubes from $29.35 for Aero Classic to $75.95 for 

Good Year.  Both are 90-degree stem bent tubes.  Wicks has Carlisle 

tubes for $33.06 with a 45-degree (TR 87) Part # 320290 bent stems (This 

works well).  However the same Carlisle 15x6x6 TR 87 Lawn, Garden & 

Trailer tubes at the local farm supply store is $9. 69. I change all my 

main gear tubes.  Easy to air now.

Thought you could use this tip.
