This is a 2-pack of 13x6.50-6 smooth turf tires designed for riding mowers and lawn/garden tractors. The smooth tread provides minimal ground marking, making them ideal for flat, well-maintained lawns where traction on loose soil isn’t critical.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, verify these three things:
- Size: Must be 13x6.50-6 (also listed as 13x6.5-6). Check your current tire’s sidewall for this exact size. The rim diameter is 6 inches.
- Load rating: 480 lbs per tire (4-ply rating). Ensure this meets your mower’s weight (check owner’s manual or current tire load rating).
- Rim compatibility: These are tubeless tires. They fit standard 6-inch rims with a 4.00-inch center hole (common on most riding mowers). Measure your rim width—recommended rim width for this tire is 4.5 to 5.5 inches.
- Application: Fits most riding mowers (e.g., MTD, Craftsman, Husqvarna, John Deere, Troy-Bilt) but not zero-turn mowers with different axle or rim specs. If your mower uses a different tire size (e.g., 15x6.00-6 or 18x8.50-8), these won’t work.
Key Things to Know
- Quality: 4-ply rating is adequate for residential mowers; not for heavy commercial use or rough terrain. Users report good tread life on flat lawns.
- Installation: Easy to mount if you have tire irons and a compressor. Seating the bead may require a high-volume air source (or use a ratchet strap around the tire’s center to push the bead outward). Balancing is rarely needed for mower tires.
- Gotchas: The smooth tread offers poor traction on slopes, wet grass, or loose dirt. If your yard is hilly or frequently damp, consider a treaded tire instead. Also, these are sold as a 2-pack—if you need only one, order a single (not always available).
- Tubeless: No inner tube required, but check your rim for damage or rust that could cause leaks. A tube can be added if the rim is porous.
Should You Buy It
Yes, if you need a budget-friendly, direct replacement for a worn 13x6.50-6 turf tire on a residential riding mower and your yard is flat with good drainage. Skip it if you need traction on slopes, wet grass, or rough terrain—opt for a treaded tire instead.
