I have developed a sidewall leak on my rear tire and decided to buy a tube instead of a new tire so this is where the problem starts. The owners manual calls for a 20x10.00-8 turf tire and the Titan OEM 20x10.00-8 's are on the tractor now. After having trouble installing the tube I took the tire to my local tire shop and he has worked on this for days. First the tubeless rim will not take a tube as no matter what we do the valve stem keeps sucking back into the wheel. Next we decided to put a new 20x10.00-8 tire on. The problem now is after installing two different brands of tires the height is wrong. it appears that the OEM is about 18" instead of 20. the new 20" tire mounted will not fit on the mower. it has it way out of level and hits the mower deck. It is apparent that the OEM 20x10.00-8 is not 20"
