Rocky Mountain Goods 8" x 1.75" Plastic Wheel - Rubber with Plastic Hub Replacement Wheels for Lawn Mower, Wagon, Utility Cart, Tiller - Heavy Duty Diamond Tread Design 1/2" Hub

What It Is

This is a replacement wheel for lawn mowers, wagons, utility carts, and tillers. It features an 8-inch diameter, 1.75-inch width, a rubber tire bonded to a plastic hub, and a diamond tread pattern for traction on grass and dirt.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, measure your current wheel’s axle hole diameter—this wheel has a 1/2-inch hub, so it fits axles or bolts that are 1/2 inch or smaller (use a bushing if needed). Check overall diameter (8 inches) and width (1.75 inches) to match clearance on your mower deck, cart frame, or tiller. It is not brand-specific; it works as a universal aftermarket replacement for many walk-behind mowers, garden carts, and tillers. Verify the wheel’s load capacity (not listed, but rated as heavy-duty) and that the hub style (plastic, not metal) suits your application.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Rubber tire is durable for light to medium use, but the plastic hub may crack under extreme stress or heavy loads (e.g., commercial mowing or rough terrain).
• Installation: Simple—remove old wheel, slide this one onto the axle, and secure with the existing cotter pin or nut. No special tools needed.
• Gotcha: The 1/2-inch hub is fixed; if your axle is larger (e.g., 5/8 inch), you’ll need a reducer bushing or this won’t fit. Also, diamond tread can collect mud or grass clippings in wet conditions.
• Price vs. Value: At $13.95, it’s affordable for a single replacement; buying two for a cart or mower adds up but still beats OEM pricing.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a simple, budget-friendly replacement wheel for a residential mower, garden cart, or tiller with a 1/2-inch axle and don’t require metal hubs or high load capacity. Avoid it for heavy-duty commercial use or if your axle is larger than 1/2 inch without a bushing.
