Tires, I had a flat on the taxiway of my home airport late one evening. I had
to call a friend to bring a dolly because when the tire goes down, the Kr is
stuck right there. My plan for Oshkosh is to carry a tire/rim assembly and the
tools to change it with. Flying solo the weight should be a non issue.

I guess I've been lucky. Not a single flat (other than the tail wheel)
in 14 years and 670 flying hours and another 500 hours on the Tripacer.
I took off from Oshkosh last year with a flat tailwheel and made two
landings on the way home. It really wasn't a big deal and didn't ruin
the tire or the wheel.
Don't forget the cotter pin.
