What It Is

A 13x5.00-6 turf tire designed for the front axle of lawn and garden mowers—typically zero-turn mowers, riding tractors, or small garden tractors. The 2-ply rating and tubeless design keep weight low and rolling resistance minimal, making it ideal for flat, maintained lawns rather than rough terrain.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify three things:

  1. Exact tire size: Must be 13x5.00-6 (also listed as 13x5x6). The first number is overall diameter (13 inches), second is section width (5 inches), third is rim diameter (6 inches). A 13x5.00-6 is not interchangeable with a 13x6.50-6 or 15x5.00-6—check your current tire sidewall.

  2. Rim width: This tire fits a 6-inch diameter rim, but rim width matters. Most OEM rims for this size are 3.5–4.5 inches wide. Measure your rim’s bead seat width if unsure.

  3. Brand/model fit: Common on Ariens, Husqvarna, John Deere, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, and many others. No universal fit—check your mower’s front tire spec in the manual or by removing a tire and looking for a stamped size.

Key Things to Know

  • Load capacity is low: 2-ply rating means roughly 300 lbs max per tire. Fine for front tires on riders, not for heavy-duty garden tractors with loaded carts.
  • Tubeless but can run a tube: If your rim has a damaged bead seat or you want extra puncture protection, you can install a 13x5.00-6 tube inside.
  • Installation is simple: Jack up the axle, remove the old tire, mount the new one—no special tools needed. Valve stem orientation matters: align it with the rim’s hole.
  • Common gotcha: Tire may be slightly narrower or wider than OEM—measure your clearance between the tire and deck/frame. A 5-inch width is standard, but some mowers have tight tolerances.

Should You Buy It

If you need a front tire for a standard lawn tractor or zero-turn mower on flat turf, this is a solid, affordable replacement at $27.89. It’s not built for rocky soil or heavy loads, but for routine mowing on grass, the 4.6-star rating and 169 reviews confirm it holds up well.
