Thanks again for the info. As far as older iron having 3 or 5 ribs, I guess it depends on where you look. The old tractors I grew up with were all 3.

Well, that's because those all have narrow front wheels. ;-)

Jeff122,

I bought a set of tri-rib narrows for my CC123 with brand new rims and bearings for $100 at the small engine show in Portland, Indiana this past August--sorry but I don't remember the vendor!!! I really like the look against my back 10.5 23 ags and the handling is outstanding.

PS>Your treads look great, even though I'm not a fan of the wide front tires myself--that's why I pulled them off the 123.

Matt -
This is true. I'm used to the narrow ones. I didn't consider the fronts on my 122 as wide. But it's all a learning experience to me. Now I just have to decide if I want to buy narrow rims or not. Are all front tires, either narrow or wide tube type?

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.
