Scope
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) applies to landing gear tires and airframe structure for all types and models of civil and military aircraft having tires as part of the landing gear.
Rationale
The idea of tire prerotation at landing to reduce tire wear and spin-up loads has been proposed many times in the past, and continues to be proposed for new airplane projects. Yet, this practice has not been adopted in the aircraft industry. This report explains why this is generally not a feasible idea, and also discusses situations where it may be beneficial. This report is a compilation of all of the information available to SAE A-5, and comprises the general consensus from the aircraft and landing gear industry on this subject.

Issuing Committee
Welcome to the SAE International A-5C Aircraft Tire Committee public forum. The SAE A-5C Aircraft Tires Committee develops standards for the design, testing, qualification, and effective utilization of aircraft tires and tubes. The Committee promotes the safe integration of tires into the larger context of landing gear, wheel, and brake operations.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
