On our PW-5 the main tire (aft of the CG) is labeled 0.35MPa (mega pascals). The POH says the same thing.
This converts to 50.8 PSI which seems really high to us.
The tire is a 400x4 TOST Aero.
Thanks, John
PS The Nose Wheel is
My 1967 SHK uses the same 400X4 tire and has a POH tire pressure of 49 PSI.
By the way, the tire only looks properly inflated with that pressure. less looks "flat" SHK max gross 820 lbs or so.
