Lawnmower Tires
Cutting grass in our lawns would have been much of a task hadn’t it been for these little machines called
lawnmowers. There are several types of mowers which include push over and tractor mowers. While buying mowers one
thing we should take into consideration is the tires. It is evident that for anyone who is buying a mower, the type
of tires whether tubeless or flat-free is a factor that determines the price and also the cost of maintenance.
Another question is, where do you start if you want to buy or replace lawn mower tires?
There are different types of lawn
mower tires which include classic rib tires, classic TX, smooth tire and studded tires among
others. Classic rib lawn mower tires are good in reduction of damage to
the lawn. They are best as front wheels. Classic TX tires have high gripping ability and are a special form of
rugged tires. Smooth Tires are tires
that have normal surface feel and shape. They are appropriate for your mower if it doesn’t need much grip. They are
ideal when used as front ones since they cause little damage to the turf and are puncture resistant. For Studded
lawn mower tires, they are used for both commercial and home purposes since
they offer two-way traction.
There are also certain factors to
consider before buying lawnmower tires. First you need to take a look at the terrain where you will be
using your mower. The main consideration is whether it is rugged or even. While replacing lawn mower
tires it is important to buy those that correspond to those of the mowers
make. You should also check the available models and prices to help you make the best decision. It is also
important to examine the tires carefully before you buy them to avoid regrets
later.
Finally,
lawn mower tire maintenance is also important. This includes checking the tires pressure at least weekly, oiling
the wheel regularly and keep mowers safely during winter. Maintenance serves
as a precaution and is important in ensuring that the lifetime of your mower is extended and hence saving some
unwanted expenses. It is also important to buy and keep for yourself a portable air or foot operated compressor and
a spare wheel. These are important when you have a flat tire and the mower is needed
instantly.
Ultimately, the type of lawnmower
tires you go for is a matter of choice. However, it is always important
to remember that cheap is expensive. It is also important to consider products that are offered with warranties and
especially when you buy them from an authorized dealer which eliminates chances of ending up with
counterfeits.
