This not entirely true. There is a huge difference between turfs and other tires. In my case turfs vs. 3 rib. The flat turfs did little or no damage to my yard on a tight quick turn. The 3 ribs wil tear it up every turn and I had to change the way I mowed.
On the other hand not having a 4wd, the 3 ribs are much easier to turn than the flat turfs. It felt like I got power steering after putting them on.

Three ribs are probably the worst there is as far as turning damage
