Deestone 11x4.00-5 D265 Lawn & Grass Tire – 43A3 – 4 Ply T/L – Multi-Traction Pattern, Set of 2 (Two)

What It Is

The Deestone 11x4.00-5 D265 is a 4-ply rated, 43A3 durometer lawn and grass tire designed for replacement on walk-behind mowers, zero-turn mowers, and small lawn tractors. Its multi-traction pattern provides grip on turf without excessive digging, making it suitable for residential and light commercial use.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify three things:

• Size: 11x4.00-5 (tire diameter 11 inches, width 4.00 inches, rim diameter 5 inches). Measure your current tire’s sidewall markings; if they match, the tire fits the rim.
• Rim width: This tire is designed for a 5-inch diameter rim. Check that your rim width is between 3.0 and 4.5 inches (common on most walk-behind mowers).
• Application: Fits many brands (Toro, Craftsman, Husqvarna, John Deere, etc.) but not all. Measure the clearance between your mower deck and the tire—some zero-turn models have tight wheel wells. Avoid if you need a ribbed or smooth tire for delicate turf or hard surfaces.

Key Things to Know

• Durability: 4-ply rating and 43A3 hardness (medium-soft) offer decent puncture resistance and a comfortable ride, but not as tough as 6-ply tires for heavy debris.
• Installation: Requires basic tools (tire irons, lubricant) and some elbow grease. Tubeless design, but use a rim sealant if your rims are rusty. Not a quick swap if you’re new to tire mounting.
• Tread pattern: Multi-traction works well on grass and dirt, but can leave marks on wet concrete or asphalt. Avoid if you need a slicks-style tire for minimal turf damage.
• Set of two: Price is for a pair, so you’ll get matching tires for the front or rear (or all four) if your mower uses the same size.

Should You Buy It

Buy this set if you need a reliable, affordable replacement for a walk-behind or compact zero-turn mower on grass and light soil, and you’re comfortable mounting tires yourself. Skip it if you mow on delicate turf, need a higher ply rating for rough terrain, or require a smooth ribbed pattern.
