Default .40 sized carl goldberg Cub Tundra Tires

Hey guys i have a few questions i'm currently building the carl goldberg .40 sized cub and am looking for a tundra tire preferably one that i can change the air pressure in depending on my field. I have this tire in consideration http://shop.dubro.com/products/produ...7.0.0.0?pp=12&

but the axle size is wrong is there any other tire or any tricks to getting around this thanks..... Jason

You can slip in brass tubing to fit your axle, then drill out the hub to receive the tubing.
I have the 6" inflatable tires in my 1/4" cub. As they are 30 years old I pump them up at the field prior to flying that day.

They will look oversized but that is the image u want to portray. I have 3 1/4" Bubro slick tires on my Sig 1/6 Cub which are bigger than what they specified but no tundra look here.
I vote for the 4".
