battery and larger 11+ 22 tires my weight and balance came out almost in the  middle 

of cg range of 11.8 out of 10.20  to  14.28.   tail weight of 30 LB and mains

I saw your tire size and not familiar with the size, I am looking for a

taller and a little more narrow tire than I have, mine are 18x8x8 anybody

have any suggestions of what sizes that are being used on kitfoxes I see

pictures of kitfoxes and some of them have tires that don't look like golf

cart tires. Like I say they look taller and more narrow I would guess 7"

wide.

Thanks Mark Summers
