Tundra tire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A tundra tire is a large low-pressure tire used on airplanes to accommodate rough terrain when landing or taxiing.
These tires are recently becoming popular with non-bush pilots as a fashion statement.
There have been several FAA studies on the aerodynamic effects on aircraft with tundra tires. It has been stated that the tires can raise the stall speed on an aircraft due to increased drag.
