Carlisle Turf Trac R/S 20/10-8 94V B

What It Is

The Carlisle Turf Trac R/S 20/10-8 94V B is a 20-inch diameter, 10-inch wide, 8-inch rim tire designed for zero-turn mowers and commercial walk-behinds. Its ribbed tread pattern provides low rolling resistance and stable steering response on turf.

Fitment & Compatibility

Measurements: 20/10-8 means 20" overall diameter, 10" width, fits an 8" rim. Actual mounted width is ~9.5", so check your deck clearance—especially on tight zero-turn frames.
Load rating: 94V (1,475 lbs per tire at 20 mph max). Suitable for heavy commercial mowers up to ~3,000 lbs total.
Brands: Common OEM on Scag, Exmark, Toro, Grasshopper, and Husqvarna zero-turns. Not a direct replacement for 20x10-10 (different rim size) or 18x9.5-8 tires.
Check before buying: Measure your current tire’s sidewall stamp—must read 20/10-8. Verify rim width (8" diameter, typically 7-8" wide rim). If your mower uses a different load range (e.g., 4-ply vs 6-ply), match the ply rating to avoid underinflation issues.

Key Things to Buy

• Quality: Carlisle is a top-tier OEM supplier. This tire uses a 6-ply rating (marked “6PR”) for puncture resistance and longer life than budget 4-ply options.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty—requires tire irons and a bead seater if doing it yourself. Professional mounting is recommended unless you have experience with stiff sidewalls.
• Gotcha: The “R/S” stands for “Rib/Stud”—the tread is directional. Mount so the arrow on the sidewall points forward for best steering response.
• Common issue: Some users report the tire runs slightly narrow (9.5" actual vs 10" spec), so check clearance on mowers with tight wheel wells.

Should You Buy It

Yes, if you need a durable, OEM-grade replacement for a commercial zero-turn mower that originally came with 20/10-8 tires. It’s a proven performer for turf traction, resists flats better than budget brands, and the price is fair for the quality. Skip it if your mower requires a different size or if you only mow once a month—a cheaper 4-ply tire will suffice for light residential use.
