I bought a 7 ft Bush Hog brand finishing mower at an estate sale several months ago. The mower was in great shape except that the tires were dry rotting due to it setting up for the past year or so.
I took the tires/wheels to a local tire store that does a lot of ag work to have them replaced. They replaced all four tires but since that time I have had a lot of problems with the tires deflating while the mower is in use. I believe that the tire store installed the wrong size tires (width) and that when I turn the mower hard they bead breaks and I loose air. At any rate, I have made about 6 trips to the tire store to have them rebeaded and fixed - I'm getting tires of the process.
I went by the local Bush Hog dealer yesterday and was told that Bush Hog only sold the wheel/tire assembly and it was $82 each - I need four. The dealer had no info regarding the size of the tire.
Does anyone have any info as to what size tire I need along with the manufacturer. The tire store is really wanting to help me get this resolved and said they would order whatever tire I felt I needed. Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated. The model number of the mower is RDTH84.
