Default I love the smell of new rubber

Well my Dad and I finally picked up our new tires. I'm tired just looking at them. LOL

That pile/row was not cheap but they are what we want. The biggest set to the right are for my 2084 and yes they are firestone floatation tires. The other set of ags which are carlisles are for my 102 which currently has original tires that the only thing holding them together are a couple of very strong cords. There are also a set of v61s for the front of my 102 and some deestones for the front of the other 102 and the original. Whew that is a lot of tire changing to be done.

Paul

What size are the Firestones that you bought for the 2084? Who did you get them from and how much $$$ if you don't mind?

Thanks
Sam

Speaking of tires... an old Japanese saying.

Confucius say man who run in front of car get tired.

Man who run behind car get exhausted.

Sam those are Firestone flotation tires 26 12.00x12 from M. E. Miller tire in Ohio. For lack of a better term they called them Blems but they are not that at all but are to be used with tubes. Mine do say on the side "tubeless" but Miller recommends putting tubes in them. These tires were $110 apiece and the tubes were 20 apiece. When I called them later to order the Carlisle's they still had the tubeless ones for $160.00 apiece. I had to wait all summer for these tires but picked them up at a local antique/tractor show that they attend so they did not charge me any shipping. Yes they are expensive but at this point in my life that is just what I wanted so I bit the bullet. I am not sure if Miller has any more of the "Blems" or if they are going to get any more. They are located in NW Ohio fairly near Toledo. They attend a bunch of tractor shows throughout the summer Their website is www.millertire.com and their phone # is 800 621-1955. I spoke with Bev Miller when I called.

Those are great tires Eric, you will love them. Here is what they look like on my 102 and I wouldn't be without them. Great choice of tires.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
