(2) Pneumatic Tire Assemblies 11x4.00-5 Fits John Deere Z235E Z255E AM142708

What It Is

This is a set of two 11x4.00-5 pneumatic tire assemblies designed as a direct replacement for the rear wheels on John Deere Z235E and Z255E zero-turn mowers. They use air-filled tires for better traction and a smoother ride on turf compared to solid or foam-filled options.

Fitment & Compatibility

• OEM Part Number: Replaces John Deere AM142708.
• Models: Confirmed fit for John Deere Z235E and Z255E (check your specific serial number range via the JD parts site).
• Measurements: Tire size 11x4.00-5, rim diameter 5 inches, tire width 4 inches, overall diameter ~11 inches. Hub pilot hole and bolt pattern must match your mower’s axle—verify by measuring your old wheel’s center hole diameter and lug spacing.
• What to Check: Ensure your mower uses a 5/8-inch axle or the correct bearing size (common on these models). Aftermarket assemblies may vary slightly in offset, so compare the rim’s backspacing to your original wheel to avoid rubbing.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Rated 4.8/5 from 9 reviews—users note durable rubber and good tread pattern for lawn traction.
• Installation: Mounts directly to the axle hub with a single bolt or cotter pin (no tire mounting required). Expect 15-30 minutes for both wheels.
• Common Gotchas: The tires arrive inflated but may need a few PSI adjustments (recommend 20-25 PSI). Over-tightening the axle nut can warp the rim. If your old tires had a valve stem at a specific angle, check these align similarly to avoid clearance issues with the mower frame.
• Load Capacity: Rated for standard residential zero-turn use—not for heavy commercial duty or rough terrain.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a reliable, bolt-on replacement for worn or flat rear tires on your Z235E or Z255E and want the comfort of pneumatic tires without sourcing OEM parts. Skip it if you require foam-filled tires for puncture resistance or if your mower uses a different axle size or bolt pattern.
