Upgrading and Changing My Own Mower Tires

I finally got tired (pun intended) of these mower tires not being able to handle the thorns, briars, multiflora rose, etc. out here. Last year I aired up the tires EVERY time we mowed, and I finally had enough. I thought to myself, “I’ll just change these tires out one afternoon and get to mowing…”. It certainly didn’t turn out that way. I finally got them changed over three partial days of working on it, but we made it through and the grass has finally been cut. The tires did great and they didn’t make the mower ride any rougher than it did originally – even though they look really aggressive. They do tear the yard up a little on sharp turns, but I’m not too worried about what my yard looks like – my neighbors can’t see my house anyway!! LOL

If you want to check out the tires I bought here they are:

In 2016, we decided to move out of town with our two boys so that they could grow up outside, raising animals, working hard, and learning to love their family. Some days it feels like we've bitten off more than we can chew, but there is always something interesting going on around here. We wouldn't trade our lives for anything now! Our videos show you what it looks like from day to day in our life. House and building projects, gardening, firewood, raising animals, hunting, fishing, gathering mushrooms, and much more.
