MARASTAR 21446 15x6.00-6 Tire and Wheel Assembly, Pneumatic Replacement Lawn Mower Front Tire compatible with Craftsman Riding Lawn Mowers, Easy Install Assembly

Top of the line tire and wheel!!

Had a flat on my 19.0 HP,* 42" Mower Model 917.255810 craftsman lawn tractor 15x6.00-6" Front Tire. This tire I ordered came the very next day which was great as snow was in the forecast and I use my tractor to plow. What is great about this particular package was that it had the metal center hub already put on the tire. This is very hard to put on watching all the instructional videos on YouTube. I watched a guy struggle with it for 20 minutes and he had done it before. I am so glad I did not have to do that step with the metal center hub! Whole project took me less then 5 minutes to do with no experience changing a tractor tire. Product came with 3 washers and that little metal locking piece which was nice. You only needed to put on 2 of the washers so one was extra to save. Sorry I don't know what the name is of the locking piece that is how little experience I have. haha. Tools I used for the project where a pliers and a flat head screw driver (doesn't mater what size I used it for prying). Yes I know a screw driver was not intended to be used that way, but it worked perfect to pop off that metal clip. The pliers I used to put metal clip back on. Super easy. I did put a little grease on it as others suggested, but I made sure my grease was good for Wisconsin winters as I live in a cold environment. :) I did notice this wheel is a little less wide then my previous wheel but it is the same height so that was the main thing. Otherwise I would have replaced both. I don't think the width will matter much. So far it is working great. I also didn't own a jack, but was able to slide a concrete block under the frame of the mower just behind the wheel area. It was a two person job as my dad lifted the mower up slightly (1/2 inch or less) as I took wheel on and off real fast. If you had a jack I am sure you could do this project by yourself. Also in all honesty this project was surprisingly easy. I thought it was going to be hard and was so surprised. It's all about getting a wheel with the center hub already put on. :)

I have an older Sears riding mower. One of the front tires stopped holding air. I purchased this tire as a replacement. The process of putting on the new tire went well. (I did have trouble accessing the grease insert once the tire was on.)I’ve had the tire for a month. So far…no issues

I gave 4 🌟 because I don't know yet about durability. This tire fit my craftsman t100 perfectly and was easy enough. I don't know how to use the eclip, so I used a linchpin that was in the old tire.

Fit perfectly on front of craftsman t140. Direct replacement, and easier to but wheel/tire assembly than reinstall a tire on the old wheel.

Bought two of these they came at different times about 2 days apart- the first one was perfect the second was flat out of the box- I sent it back and got a replacement wheel and tire in just a few days. I would purchase from these guys again .
