Goodyear Turf Command tire came apart. Anyone know of a warranty?

I'd want wheel and all so I could bolt them on and go

That's how they come.

I bought a 2018 Outlaw XP with 36hp Vanguard last year that had these Goodyear airless tires on it that the dealer had used to show off on the unit. I didn't really care for or need the tires, but he talked me out of the stock wheels because these had a higher retail value and he claimed that commercial mowers were buying them left and right for their fleet. Well, fast forward to yesterday when I'm mowing and notice that I've lost all power to my rear left wheel. Upon closer inspection I see that the rubber web has detached from the hub and is spinning freely. I've contacted the dealer to ask about a warranty, but the owner "the guy that knows about that stuff" (as the guy who answered told me) was out to lunch and I would have to call back later. Has anyone else had a similar issue with these tires? I don't want to have to replace it on my own dime since they run more than $600 per tire. I could replace it with stock wheels and tires for less. I also don't see that badboymowerparts.com offers Goodyear anymore, but has Michelin instead. I feel like I got ripped off with these wheels and now have a mower I can't do anything with until it's replaced.

I worked at the GoodYear proving grounds in west Texas. My job was as a test driver. I was paid to ruin or break tires. We destroyed a lot of mower tires. They kept sending newly designed tires until they were able to find something we couldn't break. In 3 years of testing in west texas pastures, plowing through badger holes and over rocks, etc., we broke hundreds of tires. But I can honestly say I've never seen a turf command tire display the failure you described. We were literally popping wheelies in asphalt and concrete parking lots and never had a hub/tire separation. The typical issue was the webbing, and even that was mostly eliminated with design modifications. I could upload pics of the actual mower and one of the pastures we ran in, but I am still bound by a NDA.

dang, sounds like something used on "low-riders" with the hydraulic suspensions
