This is a 2-pack of 11x6.00-5 flat-free (puncture-proof) front tires for zero-turn mowers. They replace pneumatic tires prone to flats on rough terrain, commercial lawns, or properties with debris like sticks and thorns.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, verify these three measurements:
- Tire size: Must be 11x6.00-5 (diameter 11", width 6", rim 5"). Measure your current tire’s sidewall stamp.
- Bearing bore: Choose 3/4", 5/8", or 1/2" to match your axle spindle. Measure the spindle shaft diameter with a caliper—don’t guess.
- Hub centering: The hub is centered (not offset) and ranges 5.2"–8.3" from bolt face to tire edge. Measure your existing hub’s backspacing; if it’s offset, these won’t fit.
Common on Cub Cadet, Toro, Husqvarna, and John Deere zero-turn front axles, but always check bearing and hub dimensions. Not for rear drive wheels or standard walk-behinds.
Key Things to Know
- Flat-free = heavier: Each tire weighs ~10–12 lbs vs. 4–6 lbs for pneumatic. Expect slightly stiffer steering and less shock absorption on bumpy lawns.
- Load capacity: Rated 400 lbs per tire (800 lbs total front). Fine for most residential zero-turns, but verify your machine’s front axle weight (mower weight + operator) doesn’t exceed this.
- Installation: Simple—remove old tire/axle bolt, slide new tire on, secure with cotter pin or nut. No air needed. Some users report tight hub fit; a light sanding or grease on the spindle helps.
- Gotcha: The centered hub may not align with all mower decks. If your OEM tire has offset hub (e.g., 2" offset), these won’t sit straight and can rub the frame or deck.
Should You Buy It
Buy these if you’re tired of fixing flats on your zero-turn’s front tires, especially on properties with thorns, gravel, or debris. They’re a durable, maintenance-free swap for most residential models that accept a centered hub. Skip if your mower uses offset hubs, you need a softer ride on very bumpy terrain, or your front axle load exceeds 400 lbs per tire.
