Here is the link to Rim Guard: http://www.rimguard.biz/
Get the number off the site and call them to get dealer locations.

I have a 1250 that I bought new 23x10.50/12 turf tires at the dealer because they wouldn't fill the old ones because they had tubes. They didn't look bad but I didn't argue because I wanted the tires filled. I believe they only charged me around 20 bucks to fill the tires. I was told by both the company and the dealer that RG would add about 75 lbs per tire. They were really heavy. I have one set of IH wheel weights and chains on. I have had no problems getting stuck so far. I want to get more wheel weights because our yard gets really soft when it rains in the summer. I wanted RG because we have dogs and if one of the tires leaked, we would be safe.

Make sure you shop around the dealers in your area because I had three and all were different. Hope this helps.

If you use WWF and want a good way to do it check out my old thread called Tire fill IV. It worked great.

Thanks again. I was just lazy. But for some reason in the past I've had trouble posting links on this forum. It always just posts the home page instead of the thread. Haven't tried in a while.

That is great trick we did ours with the wheels off, that seems a lot easier , and should work with other fluid depending on the viscosity. thanks Squatch!

We just attached a hose over the valve stem (valve stem removed) removed the sprayer nozzle on the sprayer and attached other end of hose to it. Pump away might need clamps on both ends depends on how tight the hose fits? When you start feeling back pressure while pumping just loosen the sprayer lid a little to equalize the pressure.Then start again.This was a heavy duty metal sprayer for concrete so diff. sprayers diff. ends so you might have to rig something? Some others may have different set-up but worked for me? Honestly when i do it again I am going to try Squatch's IV set up seems like it would make less pressure build up like with a sprayer? Sorry didn't take any pics of the sprayer set up was a last minute deal did welding work on wife's brothers van and took payment in couple cases of WWF! LOL Not bad just takes some time.( also rubber band on sprayer trigger instead of holding it) There is a set-up for a garden hose to on here and it screws right on the valve stem, be nice to incorporate in? Sure others will chime in? I'll see if dad has an pics but doubt it!

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.
