Carlisle Versa Turf FEATURES AND BENEFITS Versatile terrain traction Turf friendly driving experience Self-cleaning tread life Upgraded pressure durability OVERVIEW The Carlisle Versa Turf is an all season tire manufactured for golf carts. This tire has a BIASED ply structure. Due to the acquisition by Carlstar Tires, Carlisle tires are now manufactured under the Carlstar banner.
Bought these tires for my zero turn mower in hopes that they would provide better traction on hills and wet ground. All I can say is wow, these should have been installed on the mower from day one. I also thought that they may tear up the grass when turning but to my surprise, the old factory turf tires did worse. On to wet/muddy areas, we have a few natural springs that pop up in the yard, the turf tires would slick over and stop you in your tracks. These tires went right through and didn't spin. I would recommend these to anyone with a mower that needs added traction on hills and wet areas.
I first mounted these similar to what a tractor tire would be mounted, with v shape towards front, but I’m using them for a zero turn. I realized I did not need forward traction, but lost traction when stopping and reversing. I reversed these tires and they work really well now. The V shape of the tread points toward rear of mower now.
