My Mach1 was built yesterday, and I will be flying to the Mid-West (Iowa) from California to pick it up from Granger Motors. I purchased a AUTOMOTIVE AUTHORITY Spare Tire kit. I plan on throwing it in a suit case and checking it as baggage, that way I have it for the 2000 mile trip home. Has anyone done this before?
I would have shipped to the dealer, but they say they don't want to hold it. Too many people have sent them too many parts and pieces and they can't keep track of any more.
Somewhere on here, I think, I saw that someone had done this before and the one thing they make you do, is take the valve stem out to keep the tire from over inflating, even though flying at 40K Ft. would only increase the differential pressure of the tire about 12psi. I work at a wind tunnel and know these things.
Anyone else have input? Thanks in advance!
