Carlisle Turf Saver Lawn & Garden Tire - 15X6-6 A

These tires were the exact replacement for the original tires which were 17 years old. The tires were easy to mount. This purchase was definately a good bargain.

Worked perfectly.

Nach 19 Jahren waren die Reifen meines Rasentraktors dann porös und es wurden neue gebraucht. Gleiche Firma uns Nachfolgeprodukt. Alles bestens ich bin zufrieden.

This was my first tire mount ever. I watched some videos then put the tires in the truck and parked in the sun while at work to get hot and pliable. I used a set of three pry bars to do the work. I ground the sharp edges off them before starting. I thought I might have damaged a side wall with one of those edges, but luckily I did not. They were a bear for me to get on and off the rim. I do lack experience though. The second one went faster after having learned from the first. I soaked the rims in a bag with gasoline overnight and cleaned after removing old tires and before installing new ones. There was a lot of stop leak added in old tires that needed cleaned. Wire brushed rusty spots and tire bead contact areas. First tire: After on rim, removed valve stem core and pumped quickly with high capacity hand pump I have-- it set the bead that had been lubed with transmission fluid immediately. Done. Second tire-- had trouble setting bead. Had to take outside and spray starter fluid between tire and rim. Then with the valve core installed I attached my high capacity hand pump. Had to light the starter fluid-- but beed did not set. Had to kick the tire to allow oxygen to rapidly enter a gap to make catalyst for that chemical reaction-- then the bead immediately set with a pop. Immediately pumped up with already attached pump. It doesn't take a lot of starter fluid. Just briefly sprayed all the way around the inside of tire. Pefect outcome. No problems at all. Held air all week. Happy Mowing Job best done by physically capable folks. Hard job physically.

I have a Craftsman riding mower, and this tire matches the original tire exactly. The difficult thing is changing the tire. I watched a youtube video which helped, but what made it easier for me is using water mixed with dish soap around the rim edge and bead of the tire, to remove and install the new tire. After the new tire is on the rim, be sure to rinse the soap off and let it dry. You don't want soap or water left inside the tire. To fill the tire with air, I used a ratchet tie strap to wrap around the tire. Once the bead is sealed, remove the tie strap. If you leave it on when you add pressure, you will have a difficult time removing the strap. It is not easy, but you can do it if you have patience.
