The bent spring tube type gear and the blown nose tire allowed the prop to scrape the tips on the runway. No damage was noted to the crankshaft and the prop was repairable. No injury or pilot deviation is associated with this incident. No ground facilities or weather conditions contributed to this incident. The incident was reported by ttd tower approximately 3 days later. No FAA iic was dispatched to the site as the aircraft had been moved to the owner's hangar and repairs effected.
