I'm using 800 x 6.00 Air Track tires on my airplane. A 800 x 6.00 tire doesn't fit into standard curved nose wheel fork. I was pleasantly surprised to found out that Zenith has a larger version that fits this tire. I also have a Skytek radius mount tow-bar attachment installed too.

I'm going to start with 800 x 6.00 on the mains also.
Just switched from 17inch to 21inch front myself , if you do a lot of off airport or rough field you wont regret it ..
Skytek makes a flat version too.
Looks like the tow bar plate fits the curvature of the fork very nicely.
