Nanco and Deestone tires are shorter than even a set of turf tires. Way shorter than the other lugs.

I've also attached a pic of the actual tire... and no that is not me, that is my son.
those are very similar in price and tread to the Deestones I have now

Yeah, which is why they don't look that great or perform very well in soft or loose soil. (as I have found out)

I'm thinking of going with a 23x10.5 as they would have less of a tendency to dig holes being a wider tire.
Also the 10.5 width have deeper lugs than the 8.5 according to the specs I have found (for tru power and firestone at least).
the only problem is the pictures I have seen of the tru power 10.5 look kind of lame compared tru power 8.5.
which brings me back around to the firestone, but at $145 a pop that seems a bit excessive

the edge of the lug is much less defined on the wider tire.
kind of dumb looking if you ask me.

The 23x8.5-12 cost you $162 and the 23x10.5-12 cost you $240 with free shipping from Summit , that's a $78 expense. Don't forget to add the shipping cost if you order from m.e.Millers, Miller shipping quote are very high.

My local TSC are asking $99 each for the 23 x 10.5 x 12 Hi-Run ag tire. I thought this price is too high.

I did have a new set of Carlisle Tru Power but sold them to a former member here before I got to use them. Any new tire is going to be better than an old, worn tire. So, with out offence to the group, I'd suggest finding a bar tire with in your budget that is going to provide service, and for the cool factor.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
