MaxAuto 15x6.00-6 Tire and Wheel, 15x6.00-6 Lawn Mower Tires, 15x6-6 Front Tire Assembly Compatible with John Deere/Cub Cadet Riding Mowers, 3" Offset Hub 3/4" Bearings, 570lbs Capacity, Tubeless

What It Is

This is a 15x6.00-6 front tire and wheel assembly designed for riding lawn mowers, specifically replacements on John Deere and Cub Cadet models. It’s a tubeless tire with a 3-inch offset hub and 3/4-inch bearings, rated for up to 570 lbs per tire—suitable for residential mowing on flat to moderate terrain.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify three things:

• Tire size: Must be 15x6.00-6 (also listed as 15x6-6). Measure your old tire’s diameter and width.
• Hub offset: This has a 3-inch offset. Check your mower’s spindle or axle clearance—offset mismatch can cause rubbing against the deck or frame.
• Bearing and axle size: The bearings are 3/4-inch inner diameter. Confirm your axle is 3/4-inch (common on many John Deere and Cub Cadet models). If your mower uses 5/8-inch or 1-inch axles, this won’t fit without adapter kits.
• Bolt pattern: This is a single-bore hub (no lug nuts). It slides onto the axle and is secured by a cotter pin or clip. Not for mowers with 4- or 5-bolt wheel patterns.

Check your mower’s model number (e.g., John Deere D100/110/130, Cub Cadet LTX1040/XT1) and OEM part numbers (e.g., John Deere GY20384, Cub Cadet 734-04001). This is an aftermarket replacement—not OEM, but often interchangeable.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Solid value for the price. Tire tread is a basic ribbed design—adequate for grass but not great on wet slopes or heavy mud.
• Installation: Easy if you have basic tools (socket wrench, jack). Remove cotter pin, slide off old wheel, slide on new one, re-pin. No tire mounting required—it’s pre-assembled.
• Common gotchas: The 3-inch offset may not match your mower’s original offset (often 2.5 or 3.5 inches). Measure from the mounting face to the tire centerline. Also, the tire is rated for 570 lbs—fine for most residential riders, but not for zero-turn mowers or heavy commercial use.
• Tubeless: No inner tube to deal with, but seal bead properly on installation to avoid slow leaks.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a straightforward, cost-effective front tire replacement for a residential John Deere or Cub Cadet riding mower with a 3/4-inch axle and 3-inch offset. It’s a reliable budget option for flat lawns, but skip it if your mower requires a different offset, axle size, or a heavier-duty tire for rough terrain.
