This is a pair of 18x9.50-8 tubeless tire-and-rim assemblies, designed for rear-wheel replacement on riding lawn mowers and zero-turn mowers. They handle turf, dirt, and light slopes without needing tubes.
Fitment & Compatibility
Check three things before buying:
- Tire size: Must be 18x9.50-8 (18" diameter, 9.5" wide, 8" rim). Verify your current tire sidewall matches exactly.
- Center bore: 2.83" – measure your axle diameter or existing rim center hole. If your mower uses a 3/4" or 1" axle, this bore may be too large; you’ll need a bushing or different wheel.
- Bolt pattern: Not specified – confirm your mower uses a lug-centered (single center hole) design, not a multi-bolt pattern. Common on older Craftsman, MTD, Husqvarna, and John Deere models, but not universal.
- Valve hole: 0.59" – standard for most riding mowers. No offset or spacer needed unless listed.
No OEM-specific fitment listed. Measure your existing wheel’s center bore and axle diameter before ordering.
Key Things to Know
- Quality: 4-ply rating is standard for residential mowers – fine for lawns, but not for rough terrain or heavy loads. Some reviewers report slight wobble at high speeds.
- Installation: Direct bolt-on if bore matches. You may need a bushing (not included) for smaller axles. Use a torque wrench to 35-45 ft-lbs.
- Common gotcha: The 2.83" bore is larger than many older mowers (often 3/4" or 1"). If your axle is smaller, the wheel will slide around and cause vibration or damage.
- Tubeless: No inner tube required, but check rim bead seal before mounting – some users report slow air loss.
Should You Buy It
Buy these if you need a budget-friendly, direct-replacement rear tire pair for a residential riding mower with a 2.83" center bore and 18x9.50-8 size. Skip them if your axle is smaller than 2.83", you need a multi-bolt pattern, or you mow rough, hilly ground – the 4-ply rating won’t hold up.
