I wish to echo Rodney's statement: "call MATCO!" Excellent customer service. My personal experience with them has been wonderful.

"Amen" to Rodney and Grover about calling Matco. I've had dealings with them twice and have nothing but good to say. I was wanting to switch to 22" Dessers and was concerned if my existing narrow wheels would work ok with the much larger Dessers. I talked to a gentleman, I assume the owner and he was very knowledgeable, reassuring me that the Dessers would work just fine with my existing wheels. He was right. I really appreciated his help. He could have just as easily steered me toward buying new wheels. I bought the Dessers from him. I also bought a tailwheel assembly from Matco and I love it. I told a good friend, also with a Model 4, who was wanting to do the 27" Dessers. I told him about my good experience with Matco and suggested he give them a call.. He bought his tires, 8" wheels, double puck brakes and the works from them and was just as impressed as I was with their great service.
I know everyone says call them... but what's the suggestion they are recommending? I'm more curious for the future and kinda don't have the time or want to call them at this point.
