Rcpete,
My Lightning also kept throwing the tires off. Like the pic above,bothmanaged to come offat Winamac a couple years go. Itried gluing them on, but they'd eventually come back off. Igot a new set of Intairco's and they were fine, no problems.

Switch to BVM Mig-15 wheels & you willNEVER have a problem. They are 4" with 1/4" axle (fits stock 6mm). You just need to make a brake ear adapter for your strut. Also, BV's brakes are literally 2x the dia. of Intairco's - so stopping a 40+lb jet is no problem.

I'll talk to you more about the Lighting at Winamac.....Scott
