FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS |
Can I mix TT and TL on the same axle?
Not recommended. Replace with tyres of the same type (TT with a tube / TL without). Match the rim diameter and the dimension.
Should I change the tyres in pairs?
Recommended on the same axle to keep an even height and traction.
How do I choose the ply rating (PR)?
Everyday lawn use: 2–4 PR. Heavy load/demanding terrain: 6–8 PR. Refer to the manufacturer's recommendations.
