Reply to "Airless ti(y)res"

 More on the math:  assume rim on a 26" tire is 81" and only a 20 deg F (more in line with my actual expeience)    81"  * 20 deg * .00000645in / deg = .0104"

3500  * 81 / 81.0104 = 3,499.55 on recal

Calibration:   3,500.00 avg x 1.001 x 5.28 =  18,498.48 counts per mile

Recalibrate:  3,4999.55 avg x 1.001 x 5.28 = 18,496.10 counts per mile

  This is very typically my experience with my airless insert.  Cloudy day?  I have to be careful where I set that axle on recal. Thank goodness for dehydration.  Am I careful to sit up straight?  If it looks close after first pass, you better believe it.
