The top link tires (at 101 chevron), work on the rims that your 10.5 tires are on. No need to find or make wider rims. Bought the exact set for my loader tractor. Work great.

thenrie,

You probley already know this but different brands and different styles in the same brand will vary in width.
Dont know if you can tell much from the picture below but the ones on the 149 (one on the right) are super lugs, and are wider than the ones on the other tractor. Even though they are both marked 23x10.5-12

The ones on the left look a bit taller, too. That's one reason I posted the question. My addition and subtraction skills are still intact (although my memory is starting to...what was I saying?), so I know how tall a 26" tire is supposed to be as compared to a 23, but different tires from different manufacturers are different sizes by actual measurements, in spite of the marked sizes. Same with car and truck tires.

The ones on the right look like what I'm looking for. What make are they? Do you have them mounted on 8.5X12 rims or 12X12?

There is no 8...it should be 8.5".

Diz, please find out what size rims are on the 169 as that is the exact size tire that I've been looking for mine.

O.K. just got in from the garage. I wanted to double check everything before i posted. Matt G. is right they are 8.5 rims. Both the 149 and 169 are identical. Same width overall, same offset. The tires are the only difference. You can tell by the picture above that the 169 (one on the left) tires are almost even with the width of the rim. The 149 tires are wider and stick out past the rim (hope that makes sense)

The best description i have found for the tires Comes from Morrow tire supply. They have an e-bay store and some of the ag tires have this description to help explain. I have bought tires from these folks. Great people to deal with





DESCRIPTION
READ BEFORE BUYING! If you are looking at buying 23X10.50-12 lug tires there are three molds out there, NONE of them will measure exactly 23" tall and 10.5" wide if you take a tape measure to them. The tires in this ad are Deestone brand, this same mold is also used to make the Nanco they simply change the nameplate in the mold. UNMOUNTED they will measure approximately 21.5" tall and 9" wide. The other two 23X10.50-12 molds out there are the Carlisle Super Lug and the Carlisle TruPower. The TruPower mold is an old Titan tire mold bought by Carlisle. UNMOUNTED the TruPower will measure approximately 22" tall and 9.5" wide, UNMOUNTED the Carlisle Super Lug will measure approximately 21.5" tall and 11" wide. I sell all three treads, look in my ebay store. CONSIDER THE ACTUAL TIRE SIZING BEFORE BUYING AND NOT JUST THE PRICE AND SIZE PRINTED ON THE SIDEWALL. There is nothing wrong with the quality of these tires I just don't want anyone whining about the sizing or threatening me with bad feedback when they don't measure what you think they should, I don't make them!

Diz Jr.,

Thanks for the picture. I find that pretty dramatic. No one can explain that sort of thing to me as well as a picture does.

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.
