A Hanger Neighbour gave me a wheel complete with rotor and tire, said it was left in his hanger when he moved in. Wheel was complete, tire looked good, still held air. Curiosity got me so I broke ir down just to check for corrosion and such. Wheel looks great , including the bearings. The tire is a Goodyear Flight Special II Number 70457186. From what I read, the first number is the year OK...7...This tire was made in 2007? I'm asking. Tube is also a Goodyear, Made in Canada, LY61236. The bearing cone is a Timken 13869..not sure thats an airplane part number. Nothing else I'll put it all back together as a spare to get a flat tire bird back to the hanger.

Thanks for the help
