I mean really..... I put new tires on my wife's van within the last 18 months or so. I didn't buy cheap tires, but I didn't put Michelin's on either. I just got a decent 60/70K mile tire. I think they set me back right at $100 a piece. Read that again...... $100 for a 16" tire! Why the heck should an 8" tire cost even $70, let alone $120?? Either Miller Tire is paying through the nose to have these custom tires made, or they like to make butt loads of money on top of the custom tire. Personally, I think they are making a bit much off of them. I used to deal with Bandag tire when I ran the shop at Republic. I know what some of that stuff costs for truck tires (much larger). It's not all that expensive. |

Miller may have found an existing source over seas versus having them made exclusively for Miller.
That tire is the only "Hartford" brand they list. A google search does not show a Hartford brand tire company listing for north America. When you are the only source for a certain item, you can price it as you please. Maybe that tire is aimed at the mini-mod pullers? |

I struggled getting the 16x6.50 tri ribs on my 782 but love how they look and how they handle. Those 18x8.50s look awesome, and would love to have them on my 982 but dang, probably looking at nearly $270 out the door for the pair.

A 6 ply tire will prolly support the tractor without air in it.
that is a lot of plies for a garden tractor, unless they need the support for a automotive type engine, & pulling weights They are rated @ #1130, and they are not going to mount easily. |

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.
