Re: (ET) Ag lug tires



Back when we lived in upstate NY, I used a set of these. I got them for better traction with a steep path down to a creek. I was surprised that they didn't seem to bother the grass, but thought maybe it was the mix of tougher grasses and weeds from a likely history of cow pasture. So glad to hear they work well for others too.

As to your downside, I'd prefer not to track poop into the garage so would view that as a feature :-)

OK, so I drank the ET User group Kool-Aid regarding ag lug tires that
was going around a few weeks back. Did a lot of on-line shopping of
the many options in this genre and settled on the 23 x 10.50 x 12
Carlisle Tru-Power ($100 via Amazon with free shipping). They fully
live up to all the promo from our users:
excellent traction, almost no grass flattening pattern, no turf damage
and yes they look cool. The only real trade-off that I've noticed is
that is that they are not nearly as effective at picking up gobs of
dog poop as the old OE turf tires. Guess I'll just have to scoop more.
Thanks for the heads-up on these - very happy camper here.
