Default plugin hole in tire???
I picked three of these Carlisle 26x12-12 four ply tires up yesterday for $30. Two of them have a pretty good size hole in them. A pencil will fit in the holes. I want to put them on my 982. If I plug them will they hold fluid? Will a patch on the inside work, I have heard of boot patches. Or should I just plug them and use an inner tube to hold the fluid?
Also, the tread on these is half inch, how worn are they? I have never owned any AG tires for a GT so I don't know the tread depth on a new set. They look good other than the holes. One other question on filling the tires. It seems to me that if you use a tube that the sweat or condinsation from the tube would rust the rims, any merit to that idea?

They make a combination plug and patch if you can find one. If not I thing I would put a boot in.

I'd plug it, boot it, and then put a tube in it. I don't think I'd worry about condensation.

How about the tread? What depth are new treads?

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.
