I have a Procat DX (52" deck) Need a new rear tire rim to fit a 23x8.5-12 Carlisle Turfmaster tire. Can't buy just the rim from Bob-Cat. Does anyone out there have a part number for a 3rd party funcitional replacement? Bob-Cat part numnber for the rim + tire is 4158460.

I just went through this with my mower. I ended up buying 2 rims for way less than one rim from dealers. I had to call them and give them all the sises and they gave me some options. Here is the link to eBay where I purchased from.

Hey Chuck ... I searched on Evil-Bay too, searched "wheels" and same, with different descriptions, ( ie.) wheels, mowers , atv, golf cart , etc. etc. etc. tried about 45-50 different search topics including sizes, that's how I found Martin Wheel, (but they don't show his size) what search topic did you use to find them, I hope his bolt pattern is the same .. he B schittin in High Cotton for that price !! .. :thumbsup:
The original search was in google for Exmark rims then it led to eBay and a page with a lot of tire/wheel combos. Found a tire/wheel combo and used the company name and viewed everything they sold. They had quite a few but I needed a certain backset size. I called and they turned me on to the set in question. I have been searching for rims for over 3 months.
Shame on Bobcat ( and other companies ) that force you into buying an ASSEMBLY type unit rather than as a SINGLE component why should you have to purchase a tire and wheel as a single item, what if you recently bought NEW tires, then bent the wheel ( no damage to the tire ) OH, .. you have a "spare" tire ... like it or not !! ..:thumbdown:
GREAT job there Chuck, You need to post the info. on the SITE ... I'm sure there are others in the same situation .. :thumbsup:..:thumbsup:
I even called many bone yards with no luck. It has been a long road.
