using a 500-5 tire on a Blanik or any glider that was originally certifed
with the 350-135 tire isn't legal here and would require a field approval
since the tire is called out in the equipment list and specified in the
original certification data.. The 500-5 tire is also a smaller outside
diameter and narrower than the original 350-135 so the smaller tire may fit
but it isn't proper.

Looking for a 350 x 135 wheel from a Blanik or Jantar or ? a Good one, or
even a broken or damaged is OK as long as it's a complete wheel (no brakes
or brake hub is needed). This is needed so we can try to get new cheaper
replacement tires made for these gliders. If anyone has one lying around
let
me know
thanks

Here in Brazil we all use Goodyear 500x5 tires and tubes in our
Jantars and Blaniks, not an issue so far...
