Got my 26x12x12's cause my gf liked to hit yard sales, one sat. she called me an said she found some bar tires. She read off the size and a $40 price tag. I told her to offer 30and be ready to walk away. She called back a couple minutes later and said the guy wouldn't drop the price but he would throw in anouther set of 10.50 23 mounted on (she said) good looking cub rims. Sold. Turned out the guy was a puller bought these to try them and didn't like them, they only had half a dozen pulls on them. I'd still be with that woman if we didn't have to live together.
Them wheels and wieghts look good, should last a good long time.

Deal of the century!

Question...off topic a little...Do Ags leave any marks in the yard when you turn? I'm thinking of getting ags for my tractor but don't want the possibility of messing up the yard. I have a steep hill in the back yard and the 1450 does alot of climbing and get stuck sometimes. Ags will add traction.

I'd rather not have turf tires on any of my Cubs. The ags may leave marks for a short time, but not permanantly and you actually have less change of tearing up or scuffing turf with the ags vs. turf tires.

I have ags on both my mowing tractors. And they are loaded to give it more grip. They will help keep you from spinning out. But if a turf tire spins out it just leaves a little burn looking mark on the grass. If you are on enough of a hill to make a ag tire spin you are going to remove some sod and a little dirt as well. I have never had this problem except pulling my big yard roller. Tried to go up the slope in front of the house and spun it out. Had to do a little patch there. As far as just mowing i love the grip i get compaired to turf tires. Just my

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.
