Which Wheels for 16 Pound Model?
Which mains and tail wheel are best for my new Kange Laser 2000 at approx. 16 lbs. flying weight? Will Dave Brown light 3-1/2" wheels hold up, or will they get flat spots from sitting? What other lightweight wheel will work well? Where can I get Klett tail wheels online? Thank you for all your help.

I would recommend the Sullivan Skylite wheels which may be a little hevier but hold up better. If you use the Dave Brown wheels, block up the landing gear when not flying. Taxing and landing don't cause flat spots but sitting for a few minutes does.
I place pieces of 2x4 under the weel pants and landing gear axle.
