I need a friend in the small tire industry 😂 ...I have Turf savers on my Craftsman LTX1000 that are probably the original ones, none of the 4 hold air, the rears have cracks in the sidewall big enough to use as coin slots almost, Ive filled them with liquid electrical tape/rtv just to get by mowing. In this economy, the "regular" person can barely afford a set of 4 new tires on their car without getting a personal loan. Anyway, those tires look great, maybe I will eventually run across a used set I can find on market place or something.

I don't have those, but did replace my turf savers with the Carlisle Super Lugs, since our property is very hilly and the turf savers were just awful, especially in anything but completely dry conditions. Couldn't be happier with the more aggressive treads!

That’s nice. But personally, I think April would would really kill it if she had Goodyear Wranglers. Driving an FJ Cruiser! ❤

I have been using these for two years and I think they actually prevent you from ripping up your lawn. Anytime you spin your tires (no matter what tire you are using) you rip up the lawn. Since these tires are less likely to spin, they actually prevent the lawn from getting ripped up. You can also use more control when going up steep inclines since you have more traction (you don’t need to go as fast as you can and hope you make it). I think that prevents excess abuse on your frame, although it may put a little more load on your transmission.

I bought a full set of Carlisle for the Troy-Bilt 46" rider I'm repairing rust on (whenever I get back to it). Had I not done that, I would go with with these. I may see about returning the Carlisle set and getting these anyway. My yard is about like yours and I have a rain ditch that runs along the street. It's maybe 1.5-2 feet deep and 4-5 feet wide and I can get in and out of it OK, but these tires wouldn't break a sweat. I also have some other areas that these tires would help on. Tell Mr. John Foster that I'll be getting 4 sooner or later, and I'm sure both of you will get a lot of sales from this video. Thanks, Steve. I bet those rear tires would pop a wheelie. Not that I'd do it on purpose because my neck would not like that. Just sayin'. And I wouldn't abuse my rig like that anyway, but there are guys who do. The Carlisle on my Craftsman 46" don't hold a sharp turn and skid, but they'll do until I get the Troy-Bilt back in service. I like the Hydrostatic much better, so I'll prolly sell the Craftsman when I'm done. However, I don't see rim color options on your Amazon links. You can buy rear tires only (no rim in 1 each) and save $85.91, but I don't see that option on the front tires. Did I miss it? Thanks again, Steve, Lucky you!

*New Sub* sending a HUGE THANK YOU!!! Every summer it's always something with all things lawn care for me. And quite frankly I'm tired of visiting the used mower guy every year for another mower. Last year I found a Walmart deal on a mower with a B&S 300e for approx $100. And low and behold, a few uses in to this season, my husband cuts the grass, runs outta gas. Decides to check the oil which is low then proceeds to get gas & oil, to which he then overfills... Now, the oil looks black, sludgy and smells like fuel..But, Im hopeful that with your greatly detailed and informative videos I will not give in to the temptation of visiting the mower man. I've pulled out my tool box, gathered a few supplies from the store and I'm hoping to get my lawn cut..🙂

Psh... You want good traction with the regular old turf savers? Get yourself a paint brush and a few liters of maple syrup. Cover the tread on your lawnmower tires with a generous coat and repeat every time you cut your grass. After a few weeks you'll get a tacky, tarry, sticky clay like mud covering your tires that grips any terrain and stays bonded to the tire. Works for me but what do I know? I'm just a dope smoking Canadian with the nicest lawn in Sunnyvale.

I've got tractor tyres on mine, to mow 3 sloping acres in any weather. Massive traction. Cheap as dirt and they don't rip up your grass or leave ruts. Nature heals, faster than you'd think.

I put the turf traction tires on my Toro zero turn a year ago. I love them, got stuck one time when I slid into a shallow ditch. It will pull some grass if you take off too fast or make a sharp turn when the ground is wet. Overall great tires.

The fronts are on my larger tractor and a larger version of your fronts are also the rear tires, the regular turf saver on my smaller. Tires with the tubes are well over $300 on both tractors but I needed new tires.

Nice looking tire. I have bar tires on the old Yard Man and Ag tires on the Z-Turn. The bar tires work good. The Ag tires work good but on soft ground they dig in a bit but it is harder it get it stuck. 😁 James out.

These are on my to buy list now. I was mowin a customers grass yesterday and got stuck on the backside of a knoll overlookin a 100ft dropoff. It was about 12degree incline and i was scared to try and push the mower. If it got away from me itd destroy my mower and probably of hit the other guys house. After about half an hour i finally got it rolled around in a half circle enough that i could traction to back away from the edge. Yeah,i need better tires,and better judgement

Well dang. The beginning made think it would be entertaining to see you hold back the cussing while mounting them on the rim. Was a little disappointed that it was already on the rim. I've seen that you can buy tires already on the rim.. I'm not very inclined to pay extra for rims when I already own a set, they just happen to have my old tires on them.. it's a hassle to mount yourself, but saves the $.

My parents have had three different john deere riding mowers since '96 and they have never kept the standard tires. We have so much varied terrain, and turf on our acreage it is unfeasible, , impractical, and unsafe to do so. Im still using the 96 jd 275 as a workhorse and it has the original tractor style traction tires on the back that were put on in 96. I encourage anyone to get rid of the turf saver tires because for most owners they are useless. Especially on the bigger lawn tractors. Ive been helping an older gentleman do brush work withe his craftsman 130 mower and it scares me every time i use it because his place is all steep slopes, uneven terrain, and various turf. It has turf savers blown up rock hard and the thing won't gip, will slide, spin out, etc.. it is real fun going down slope with a trailer load of limbs and having it push the tractor ahead of it and try to tip you over. It is even more so when you hit the wet moss and grass. Change the tires folks, you shorts will thank you when they don't get soiled from that unscheduled trip you might take down a slippery slope. Extra gripage is a good thing! Love the hybrid tread on the back set of tires. It looks like a cross between the ones on my parents 96 and the quad style they have on their newest machine.
