I sure do love the look of Super Lugs on a Cub. The ones on my 782 are actually 4-ply, I've never seen any others like them. As far as other brands go, I prefer Tru-Powers for the deep tread and the squared-off look. I haven't owned a set of Firestone 23°'s yet, but if I get a super garden tractor someday I would like to try a set. I think they look better in the 26x12-12 size than the 23x10.50-12 size. Last I heard Firestone sold the molds to some foreign company and they're made overseas now? Not sure if there's any truth to that. I just put V61's on my 782 and my JD 210 and now I don't want to use any other kind of front tire...can't wait to see how they perform mowing and plowing. I think they're a good "medium" between dirt work and lawn work. Aggressive, but not too aggressive like the tri-ribs.

Cool video

I have Deestone D405 26x12.00-12 (4PR) on my John Deere X740. To me they look a bit wimpy compared to the Carlisle Multi Trac C/S turf tires I had on it previously. They are not nearly as wide as I would have wanted. The Carlisles looked like drag slicks compared to them. I have a set of Hi-Run AG tires in 20x10.00-8 on a little Murray lawn tractor that look great, are wide enough and have nice, deep well spaced lugs. For the fronts, you can't beat Vredestein 5 rib (4 groove). They have the right amount of bulge for the mounted width. Look great, don't tear up the grass and turn in like you expect.

I have some almost 7 year old Carlisle Super Lug tires in the size 18x9.50-8 on my lawn tractor and i really like them. They work really good in mud, snow, dirt, gravel and grass. They still look like they are new today even tho i have used them a lot on asphalt roads too. I have some Carlisle X Trac tires on the front in the size 15x5.00-6 and they also work really good and they looks good on the tractor. 🙂

I prefer the flat profile rear tires as well.

I also prefer the Firestone 23° and the Tru-Power right in there second place for appearance, but in performance I put the Tru-Powers on top. The 23° Firestone tread give off a vibration on hard roads I don't care for. Spending that kind of money plus shipping I'll buy the Tru-Power brand and get the performance I need.

What size tires on the old Case tractor? Is it running with Spacers also? I noticed it looks far wider than stock set up.

Nice overview video. What's your opinion on the Fieldmaster 23x10.50-12's? I've been seriously thinking about getting a set- they seem heavy duty; 6ply, and resemble the super lug pattern, heavily. Also, about the 18x8.5-8 vs. 16x6.5-8 V61's.... to maintain the quad-rib design on the larger and wider tire, I noticed my 18" V61's are more squared off than my 16's on my Deere's. I need to get a set for my cubs.

The carlisle super lug are still available!!!

By the way, I must say you are living the dream with that building full of cool toys! How big is your shop? I'd like to put up a pole barn someday to store all my garden tractors, plus a semi truck and a couple farm tractors.

At 1:15, do those tire has a air tube inside or is it just the tire and rim

I have a John Deere 345 and according to the book it’s 895 pounds do you think with the 3 rib would rip into lawn

I wish they made real tractor tires in that size. My 62 simplicity 725 has real 6-12 tractor tread tires on it.

todays tires are definitely not made the same, my dads cub 100 sat in our shed for almost 25 years on its original tires that were flat, we brought it out restored in and have been using it for almost 3 years not with those same tires, they have dry rot and some cracking but have never lost air, I haven't pumped them up once since we restored it

I have a set of Deestone tires on my one cub and they look a lot like those WDT tires. I been running tru power on all my machines, little hard to get anything else up in Canada with those stupid eco fees on everthing.

Where did you source the tri rib front tires?

I will never buy Firestone and you never see me by Good Year they're better tires then just them

Turf tires are for queers....sadly many guys either don't know, or simply cannot understand that AG tires do far less damage when cutting the grass because they do not slip/spin. The AG tires do very well in snow and ice, but one must be INTELLIGENT using air pressure and weight, if you have hills and ice then every and any tire needs chains to get anything done. Yeah AG tires are more expensive, but there's a good reason for that. Also I must include most of my experience with AG tires on the small tractors (I also have a full size Deere my rears alone are 52" tall so enough said) is with real Firestone flotation 23° tires. The absolute best Ag garden tractor tire is the Firestone Flotation 23°, most expensive tho. 2nd is the Carlisle Tru Power 3rd is the rest Friends and family have atleast one set of dam near every other AG tractor tire, so I am taking their opinion rather than my personal experience. The Firestone lugs have more lugs like the deestones but the 23° bites and holds rather than a normal 45° which is the best at moving material out of its way an to the sides. But they dig too fast. Also the rubber compound of the Firestone's is the best, it's a little softer/stickier which helps a lot in winter. The guys who say they suck in winter are the monkeys with 15fckng psi...air the down you idiot lol hell my father has 5 psi in his most of the year, with a lot of weight you compensate with more air Rarely in life is 1 tire the absolute dominant King, but the Firestone Flotation 23° is the King Second place is undeniably the Carlisle Tru Power
