What It Is

This is a 2-pack of 13x5.00-6 flat-free (solid) tires mounted on wheels with a 3" centered hub, pre-installed with both 3/4" and 5/8" ball bearings. Designed for zero-maintenance on riding mowers, zero-turn mowers, and lawn tractors—no air, no flats, no patching.

Fitment & Compatibility

Measure these three things before buying:

  • Tire size: 13x5.00-6 (13" outer diameter, 5" wide, fits a 6" rim). Verify your current tire’s sidewall matches this.
  • Hub dimensions: The hub is 3" centered (not offset). Measure from the wheel mounting face to the center of the hub. If your mower uses an offset hub (e.g., 2" or 4" offset), this won’t align properly.
  • Bearing bore: Comes with both 3/4" and 5/8" inner bearings. Check your axle diameter—most riding mowers use 3/4", but some older or compact models use 5/8". If your axle is larger (e.g., 1"), these won’t fit.

Brand/model notes: Fits common brands like John Deere, Craftsman, Husqvarna, Troy-Bilt, MTD, and Ariens, but only if axle diameter and hub offset match. Not for push mowers, wheelbarrows, or carts (hub depth/offset differs).

OEM vs aftermarket: This is an aftermarket replacement. If your OEM part number is 490-501-0039, 590-501-0039, or similar, it’s a direct swap. If not, verify dimensions manually.

Key Things to Know

  • Ride quality: Flat-free tires are stiffer than pneumatic. Expect a rougher ride on uneven terrain—fine for flat lawns, less ideal for bumpy ground.
  • Installation: Easy swap if dimensions match. Remove old wheel, slide on new one, secure with the existing axle clip or cotter pin. No tire mounting or inflation needed.
  • Weight limit: Solid tires are heavy (~12 lbs each). Check your mower’s axle load capacity—excessive weight can stress bearings and spindles over time.
  • No puncture protection needed: Zero maintenance, but they don’t absorb shocks like air tires. If you mow over roots or rocks, you may feel more vibration.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you’re tired of fixing flat tires on a riding mower used on smooth, flat lawns and want a permanent, no-maintenance solution. Skip it if you need a cushioned ride on rough terrain, have an odd axle size, or require an offset hub—those cases need pneumatic tires or a different hub configuration.
