Default Has anyone ever used tires similar to these?
I am thinking of upgrading tires on my 682. I only mow with this one once in a while. ( Maybe 2 or 3 times a summer). I am going to go up to 26x12x12 for the awesome look. Has anyone ever used this type of atv tire on their garden tractors? How do they look and perform? Pics would be great !!! Thanks, Jason

Unless your going to change the front tires and change the lifting height of your mower deck I would stay with tires size you already have.

I added 26" tall radial rear tires, but, the tractor is not intended for mowing.




I wanted traction, these got it!!

I've never used those tires, but I have 26x12x12 ags on my 1282 and I mow with it every week. There's no problem with front tire size or deck lifting height. You may have to re-level your deck which takes about 10 mins. but nothing major. Their a little tight on the fenders but they clear fine.

I have the 26x12x12 on my 1811, Carlisles I believe. I guess I was wondering more if the composition of the tires were an issue because they were atv tires. Do they excessively make the tractor bounce if I mow with it etc......
I assume these shouldn't tear up a yard anymore than ag tires would.

That tractor looks too nice to take out and get dirty. How about some pics and info on the rear wheels, I'm looking for some cool wheels for my 2182.

Thanks
Sam

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.
