PROPARTS 2Pcs 13x5.00-6 Tire - 13x5x6 Lawn Mower Tires for Riding Garden & Tractor, Straight Rib, Fits Grass Mud Hilly Terrain, 2PR

What It Is

This is a set of two 13x5.00-6 straight-rib tires for riding lawn mowers, garden tractors, and zero-turn mowers. Designed for dry, flat terrain like grass and packed dirt, they offer low rolling resistance and minimal turf damage, but lack deep tread for mud or slopes.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower uses a 13x5.00-6 tire size (13" outer diameter, 5" width, 6" rim). Measure your current tire’s sidewall markings—this is a 2-ply (2PR) tire, not 4-ply. Check the rim hole diameter (typically 3/4" or 5/8") and bolt pattern; PROPARTS doesn’t specify, so measure your axle or hub. This tire fits many John Deere, Craftsman, Husqvarna, Troy-Bilt, and MTD models, but always verify OEM part numbers (e.g., John Deere AM127854). Avoid if your mower requires a 4-ply tire for heavy loads or rough terrain.

Key Things to Know

• Quality vs price: At $37.99 for a pair, these are budget-friendly but use a 2-ply rating—lighter than OEM 4-ply tires. Expect shorter tread life on rough ground or with heavy mowers.
• Tread pattern: Straight rib design is best for flat lawns; it provides good steering response and won’t tear up grass, but offers almost no traction in mud, wet grass, or on hills.
• Installation: Simple swap if your rims are removable—just deflate, unseat beads, and remount. No special tools needed, but balancing isn’t required for mower speeds. Check for valve stem alignment.
• Common gotcha: These tires are narrower than some OEM tires (5" vs 5.5" or 6"), which can affect stability on side slopes. Measure your rim width first.

Should You Buy It

Buy these if you need a cheap, direct replacement for a flat or worn 13x5.00-6 tire on a lightweight riding mower used only on flat, dry grass. Skip them if you mow hills, wet turf, or rough terrain—you’ll want a 4-ply tire with deeper tread (like a turf-saver or knobby pattern) for better grip and durability.
