Cessna R/TR 182 Pilots and Owners

When we purchased our R182 in late 2020 it came with a set of brand new Good Year Flight Custom III tires. After 300hrs of service we noticed the right MLG tire had noticeably more wear on the outer area of the tread than the inner area, so we recently flipped the tire on the rim. See pics below - pic2 shows wear variance from outer to inner tread areas. We're hoping for another 300hrs of service on these tires which seems possible given the thickness of rubber remaining on the now outer area of the tread. We also like the wide/flat tread footprint on the relatively small 15x 6.0-6 main tire that helps distribute weight when on soft areas like grass runways.
What brand of tires are you using? Are you pleased with their performance? Post pics of their wear performance on this thread.
Note: We struggled breaking the tire bead from the wheel possibly due to the high pressure(68psi) recommended for the main tires. Is there a secret method for breaking the bead? Please share.

While considering tires for his R182 recently Mike Pattison compared Condor tires to Good Year Flight Custom III’s by putting each on a scale.
No surprise the GYFC3s were almost 2 lbs heavier, showing the difference in thickness of tread rubber and justifying their additional cost.
