Michelin has added new sizes to its "best-selling" Pilot tire line of ultra-high-performance aviation tires. The additional sizes, according to the tire maker, will provide more options for general aviation owners. The tire is claimed to provide “exceptional level of both strength and durability”. The tubeless design is also said to reduce overall wheel weight and help eliminate tire creep on the wheel. The new tire sizes include:00-6 6PR 160MPH P/N 025-316-0;00-6 8PR 160 MPH P/N 025-317-1; 5 8PR 160MPH P/N 025-630-0; 5 10PR 190MPH P/N 026-631-0
