I was curious if anyone has ever used tires designed for an ATV on his zero turn mower.
I have a Dixie Chopper XW2000, and the rear tires are size 22x11-8.
I need to replace one of the tires and have an ATV tire of the same size, a four-ply Excel Sahara Classic.
I do notice that the max load rating imprinted on the ATV tire is 340 lbs., and I believe that some replacement tires for ZTRs from manufacturers such as Carlisle have higher max load ratings than that.
I think that these Excel ATV tires are widely used on golf carts, which, I believe, are fairly heavy.
What is the main difference in the construction between ATV and mower tires, and are they interchangeable?
Thanks for any input.

I use ATV tires on everything.
On the ATV tires the weight rating is lower because that's what are government wants.
I find the ATV tires last longer even running 10 psi
