Default Tire Question

My 109 has 23x8.50x12 tires mounted on the factory 7in. rims which are rotten. Found a pair of 10.50s but will they work on my rims ? Will there be a clearence problem etc?

Hey Ga.Cubby!!!! How's it going good buddy!!!!

Will to begin with, installing a 10.50 inch wide tire on a 7 inch wheel might work, but one thing you will notice is that the tire will "Balloon up" due to not having enough width on the wheel for the tire to stretch to the sides. I would recommend a pair of 8.50 wheels or even a 10.50 wheel. The 10.50 wheels are little hard to find but I know a guy who might have them. Let me know if you're interested and I'll get in contact with him. As for the clearance. That will depend where the wheel hub is placed on your 7 inch wheels. If the wheel hub is placed on the Heavy Off Set side, then there shouldn't be any problem. But if it's placed at a Zero Off Set or meaning right in the center of the wheel, then there might be a little problem there. Hope this helps??? Take care good buddy!!!!


Here's a pic of my wheel. The wheel hub is placed on the Heavy Offset Side.



Here's what it looks from the front.

I have 10/50 tires on my 102 on 7inch rims with no clearence problems,I had 8/50 on it to start. I did get 1/4 inch spacers: for winter with chains for added clearence, I love how the new tires fit and work. JMD

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.
