Carlisle Turf Saver Bias Tire - 18x7.50-8 4

These are quite difficult to install by hand but it can be done. Go to Harbor Freight and get the 24 in. tire tool for $5.00. A LONG LEVER WITH A CURVED END IS ESSENTIAL. Then watch you tube videos on how to do this. Watch about 10 of them till you find the right one that explains which side to start on. IT IS NOT the same process if you start on the inside or outside bead. One is method is impossible and one is VERY DIFFICULT but successful with patience. You want to start on the bead that is closest to the narrowest part of the wheel. THE TRICK IS when you break that bead, you can press it to the inside of the narrowest part of the wheel (groove kind of) and that will give you the slack you need to get it off the outside on the other side (180 across). IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP EVERYTHING SLIPPERY ENOUGH SLIP OVER THE METAL. But if everything gets slippery, you have no grip. Recommend rubber (nitrile) gloves which will probably shred, and Simple Green. SG will be slippery when wet but dry up quickly enough to grip the rest of the tire when you need to. Something like silicone will lube the whole unit and you'll look like a monkey F***kng a coconut the rest of the process. Once you get one bead popped out all the way around, the other goes into the groove (narrow part of wheel) and comes off same side. Some screwdrivers, wedges or small prybars are useful for preserving your progress as you work around. There's sort of a "start" process when you're trying to lift bead off, then a "middle" process when you are trying to hold your progress and work radially around, and then an end progress when you've got about 270 degrees done and are trying to "pop" the rest. You don't need to buy the HFreight tire changing machine, but that's a last resort. A vertical pole sticking out of the ground that is stable that you can put through the hub of the tire is VERY helpful for levering against radially. You can do it. Use a lot of patience, think very mechanically about how materials behave. Bake the tire in the sun or an oven at about 120 to make it softer. Then approach logically and slowly, each time you lose ground or fail, figure out what went wrong and adjust. I like the resulting ride and look and traction of the tires, they look like quality. I installed tubes (that only SLIGHTLY complicates the reinstall process) but I'm glad I did cuz I'd never want to do this job again for a slow leak. It's an old Snapper Rear engine and I had no confidence the metal bead wasn't corroded. Note, I did this alone. With two people and four hands, it might have been a much more slick process. I think it took me 1.5 hours per wheel to remove, install, insert tube and inflate, so a 3 hour job for a pair. That's working alone. But a very good result.

spedizione velocissima prodotto come da descrizione stessa gomma che era montata sul mio mezzo... mi sono trovato veramente molto bene. soddisfatto dell'acquisto.

Carlisle is always a good tire made with quality. This tire was a perfect replacement for my Husqvarna 48" lawn tractor. No issues at all. Size is exact, holds air perfectly. A very good value for a tire that will last.

Pagati 30 euro l'uno, e arrivati dopo quasi un mese, non sono i Carlisle come riportato, ma pneumatici cinesi marcati Quest , con misure 16x6.50-8, che sono quelle esatte per il mio tagliaerba, ma queste hanno il battistrada molto più stretto e non sono quelle riportate sulla gomma per quanto riguarda la larghezza del battistrada. Le precedenti erano tubeless, queste il gommista le ha dovute mettere con la camera d'aria , provate una volta appena e ho già una gomma a terra!
