TBC Turf. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Turf-friendly performance; Turf terrain traction; Enhanced controllability; . OVERVIEW: The TBC Turf is an all season tire manufactured for lawn mowers and garden tractors.This model features an optimized tread pattern. The footprint's special S-shaped blocks, along with the ideal void ratio, maintains consistent surface contact. These elements generate traction, allowing the tire to conquer soft and loose terrains with ease. Their consistent forward motion is guaranteed, improving the overall performance and driving durability.The durable soft traction and the optimized footprint work together to ensure a turf-friendly performance. The combination of these elements effectively eases the driving pressure off the surface, preventing them from loosening up the ground. As a result, the tire resists damage to grass and turf fields, making this tire perfect for lawn mowers and other garden equipment.The TBC Turf helps to maintain its surface contact as well. The tread helps to increase the tire's controllability. It allows the tire to increase its steering responsiveness and driving stability. Faster and more precise steering responses are guaranteed, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. This promotes a safer driving experience.This is a bias ply tire. Due to the tire's internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller bias ply tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire's non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire's ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability. The photo is a representation of the tire's possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application. This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
