The Spruce catalog shows the price to be 16.95, but the on-line catalog now shows 22.95. They come in both a 6 ply and 8 ply. I have used the 8 ply for nearly ten years and have never had a flat, except one in the hangar which turned out to be a valve stem problem. I have looked, but never found any other manufacturer for our size tire. I have used 8 sets of main tires in 664 hours, with the number of landings per set varying from 162 to 202. During this time I think I replaced the tubes once or twice. I hope this info is useful to you and other LNC2 flyers.
