Well I bought some new rear tires for the SR825, it has some rather narrow tires on the rear, a 4.80 x 4.00 -8 Well I got the old ones off easy enough and changed out the valve stems. But after several hours of fighting with the new ones I gave up and decided to bring them to a tire shop in the morning. I have put some of the wider tires that one of these norm have on before but these narrow ones are very stiff and I could not even get them close to going on....:ashamed:
Grrrr

I had same trouble doing the fronts on my parents cub cadet. The tire shop told me that I was better to buy inner tubes and to do that when buying new tires. He said the new tires get banded so tight together its hard for bead to come and seal on the rim. Plus the tires will last longer with inner tubes.

Yes I think the front tires on this mower has tubes but they were fine, the rear tires were dry rot with large cracks and would not hold air for more then 2 days, so I decided to change them but whew what a challenge.
