In Reply to: Tire Choices? posted by Quintin on Thursday, October 04, 2001:
: Anyone have comments or opinions about Titan Tru Power, Firestone Flotation, or Carlise Super Lug tires? I'm thinking about replacing the turf treads on my 445 with one of these brands in 26/12.00-12. I live in the south, so snow blowing is not a concern. I'm mowing, using a box blade, and have a tiller on the way soon. Anyone have a favourite and why? Thanks!
Hi I am replying about your question on the tires. I had 2 ply carlise bar treds on my pulling garden tractor in 18x9.5x8, but now Iam putting 23x10.5x12s on there so I have more speed. All of my pulling buddies swear by carlisle 2 ply bar treds so thats what I bought and they work great. They work really well at low pressures like 3 to 4 psi. Also if you run these tires at this low of pressure you may want to put a tube in them or screw the tire to the rim so that the tires will not spin on the rim. In the class we pullthe biggest size you are allowed to use are 23x10.5x12,but in the next calss up the guys use 26x12x12s and most of them are using carlise that I have talked to. And they pull around 4,000lbs so if you are just doing garden work you should be fine with carlise tires or if you are pulling they will do very good.
