What It Is

This is a 2-pack of 13x5.00-6 flat-free (non-pneumatic) smooth tires mounted on steel wheels, designed for zero-turn mowers, riding lawn mowers, and garden tractors with deck sizes from 36" to 68". The solid foam core eliminates flats, making it ideal for commercial use or rough terrain where punctures are common.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check these three measurements:

  • Hub length: Accepts hubs from 3.25" to 5.9" (measured from wheel mounting face to axle end). If your mower’s hub is outside that range, the wheel won’t seat properly.
  • Bore ID: 3/4" (0.75") axle diameter. Measure your axle shaft with a caliper—most residential riders use 3/4", but some commercial models use 5/8" or 1", which won’t fit.
  • Tire size: 13x5.00-6. Confirm your current tire sidewall reads the same. This tire is slightly wider and taller than standard 13x5.00-6 options, so check for clearance on your deck or frame.

Not a direct OEM replacement for any single brand—verify fit across John Deere, Cub Cadet, Husqvarna, or Toro models manually. Aftermarket, so no warranty from the mower manufacturer.

Key Things to Know

  • No flats, but rougher ride: Solid foam transfers more vibration than air tires. Expect a stiffer feel on bumpy lawns—fine for flat ground, less ideal for uneven terrain.
  • Easy install, no tools needed: Slips onto the axle and secures with a washer and cotter pin or clip (not included). No tire mounting or inflation required.
  • Weight difference: Each wheel/tire combo is heavier than a pneumatic equivalent (about 12 lbs each). This can affect mower balance or strain the drive system on lightweight residential models.
  • Smooth tread only: Not for hills or wet grass—provides less traction than a ribbed or turf tire. Best for flat, dry lawns.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you’re tired of fixing flats on a commercial or heavy-use residential mower and don’t mind a firmer ride. Skip it if you need traction on slopes, have a lightweight mower with a weak transmission, or your axle size isn’t 3/4". For $80, it’s a durable, low-maintenance upgrade for flat terrain.
