Thank you for the additional tires. However, I returned them in the past because the wrong size was ordered. I will return the pair over the next two days that I received this week.This is a quality product but the wrong size for the mower that I currently own.***Please provide return label. ****Thank you..

I almost came unhinged when I got the tires and they were branded Carlstar. I was still impressed with the quality. Did some checking and found out that Carlisle is now Carlstar. No big deal, still an excellent tire. Nice wide rear tires, not ballooned like some off brands I've had.They were compressed for shipping and that was a pain but not a deal breaker. Once you get the tire mounted it takes a little finagling to get the bead to seat. I remove the core from the valve stem so my compressor can fill the tire very quickly and that helps to seat the bead fairly easily, then I overinflated to firmly seat the bead, let most of the air out and replace the valve stem core and inflate to the correct pressure.Overall, very good quality tire and not too difficult to mount if you have some experience with that. If not, take them to a tire shop and have them mounted for you.

I bought this tire for my Cub Cadet XT1 lawnmower. One of the front tires got a puncture and needed to be replaced. This tire is the exact OEM front tire that came on the mower when I purchased it 5 years ago. The tread is well suited for a typical lawn. Good product.

Moved into a new (to us) house... 'lo and behold there was and old Craftsman Riding mower sitting in the barn collecting dust for years. One of the front tires was terribly flat and had developed cracks along the sidewall from years of sitting. Imagine my delight to find that Carlisle still makes the same tire/size/model and it's here on Amazon for a great price. Swapping the old tire for the new wasn't too hard (watch youtube videos for how-to). Now that the new tire is mounted the mower is super happy and enjoys puttering around doing tractor-y things again. Kudos Amazon for having this item available :)

Product showed up on time and in good order. The price point is to high when you consider that you could buy tires on rims for cheaper and would do the same job. Sad to say that prices are basically asking people to throw away perfectly good rims in order to buy a cheaper tire. Knowing the price difference I bought without rims anyway as I am not a person who believes we should throw away anything that is still good but that is what the prices are suggesting as unmounted tires on rims are more expensive then tires mounted on rims.

This was my first tire mount ever. I watched some videos then put the tires in the truck and parked in the sun while at work to get hot and pliable.I used a set of three pry bars to do the work. I ground the sharp edges off them before starting. I thought I might have damaged a side wall with one of those edges, but luckily I did not.They were a bear for me to get on and off the rim. I do lack experience though. The second one went faster after having learned from the first.I soaked the rims in a bag with gasoline overnight and cleaned after removing old tires and before installing new ones. There was a lot of stop leak added in old tires that needed cleaned. Wire brushed rusty spots and tire bead contact areas.First tire: After on rim, removed valve stem core and pumped quickly with high capacity hand pump I have-- it set the bead that had been lubed with transmission fluid immediately. Done.Second tire-- had trouble setting bead. Had to take outside and spray starter fluid between tire and rim. Then with the valve core installed I attached my high capacity hand pump. Had to light the starter fluid-- but beed did not set. Had to kick the tire to allow oxygen to rapidly enter a gap to make catalyst for that chemical reaction-- then the bead immediately set with a pop. Immediately pumped up with already attached pump. It doesn't take a lot of starter fluid. Just briefly sprayed all the way around the inside of tire.Pefect outcome. No problems at all. Held air all week.Happy MowingJob best done by physically capable folks. Hard job physically.

Because the tires were misshapen it was hard to get the bead to seal after they were put on rim.Installed on John Deere X300.

These tires were the exact replacement for the original tires which were 17 years old. The tires were easy to mount. This purchase was definately a good bargain.

Like many, my tires arrived compressed. I have seen several complaints with regard to this. Having worked as a mechanic I am here to tell you that while automotive tires are not compressed this way for shipping, most large lawn tractor tires are. This is not the shipping people, this is the manufacturer who does this. The trick is to remove the shipping straps/materials and place the tires in a warm place to "decompress." They will eventually "pop" into their original shape as manufactured. If you try to mount them too soon, and you put them at the proscribed pressure, you'll end up with your tire rolling off the rim repeatedly. In fact I've seen cases where people did this and the tires ended up with a permanent saddle shape. If you don't have a nice warm sunny climate or a good heated spot (like right below a heat duct) in a shop, you can use a heat gun on low to warm them. I have done this in winter time when replacing tires on winter equipped snow rig tractors. Just warm them gradually. In one case I ended up heating and reheating the tires on and off over the course of a couple of days until they finally took shape.The tires themselves perform well. They arrived in excellent shape. Other than a little "flash" rubber at the bead of one (which was easily trimmed to make a better seal) I have no complaints with the quality.EDIT: I did forget to mention one problem with the tires. Actually only with one tire. In spite of them being, as you can see from my included photographs, Carlisle Turf-Savers, Made in U.S.A. and 4 ply, one tire had a nasty defect.The side wall height is imperfect, in fact off by about a centimeter. This caused the tire to be very difficult to mount to some degree, and causes it to lose air due to imperfect bead seating on the rim. I solved the problem by installing an inner-tube.The problem with "Made in U.S.A." these days is that US standards are nowhere near like they used to be. Once upon a time American laborers did a great job because they took pride in their work. Now most of our labor force is made up of entitled folks who'd rather take a day off whenever possible.
