These are the standard main tires on Staudacher 300 and PANZL S330 aircraft. I own the latter. Your choice for an 11/400-5 tire are the Cheng/Shin (Lamb) or the Aero Classic. The Aero Classic 8 ply is by far the most resilient and therefore longest lasting, typically running 2-3x the number of cycles as the Lamb equivalent. Definitely worth the premium! Aaron McCartan
I am very happy with my new Aero Classic tubeless tires. I installed them and flew them to Oshkosh, Marion Indiana, Buena Vista Colorado and back home to Tehachapi CA. They worked perfectly, never lost pressure and I flew as high as 14,000 feet in Colorado. Love my new tires, thanks Jim. Mike Melvill

Those are all the same sized tire. They have a diameter of 11" they are 4" wide and they are used with a 5" wheel. The 500-5 is 5" wide and used with a 5' wheel. I believe they don't add the third measurement be cause it is a "standard wheel" and the diameter can vary slightly from one manufacturer to the other.
The tire itself is rated as tubeless but you would have to have a tubeless/sealed wheel to use it as such. Most do not which is why we recommend the tube.
Approx 4 lbs.
The notes on the tire state the max load is 650lbs at 70 psi.
