Hi, I'm a new member and have been browsing for information about changing tires on my old Simplicity. I use it "up North" on my property to mow / maintain trails and pull the small utility trailer hauling firewood, etc. But it has a couple of problems. Since it is in the woods the trails have a lot of roots and uneven ground. I always mow at the highest level but could benefit from raising the deck more. Also, there are a few small hills where the turf tires will loose traction when hauling stuff or I can get stuck in between roots. So I'm thinking a solution would be larger tires and maybe Lug treads.
I have no experience with changing lawn tractor tires. My current back tires are 18 x 8.5 x 8 and front is 15 x 6 x 6. I think I can go to 20 x 8 x 8 in back, not sure what to do with the front. Does anyone have advise? Where is the best place to order tires?
