Good and Reliable Lawn Tractors
Knowing a good manufacturer of a lawn tractor is like choosing a good car brand. There are several things to keep in mind when choosing a lawn tractor. Of course, when you buy this type of machinery, you do not just buy something impulsively, even if it is not what you really need. Knowing more about the specifications of the tractor and the reason behind purchasing one will help you in choosing the brand that will suit your needs.

Help answer the question about lawn tractor tires
Have a question about Lawn Tractor rims and tires!?
I have this 1966 Cub Cadet 122 that I'm going to be painting and stuff. I'd like to change the rims and tires to something a little cooler. Right now, they're painted white, very stock. I'd like to change them to something chrome or polished aluminum. I've looked at ATV and Golf cart rims, but they won't work. They're usually 4 lug and I need 5. It's a 12" rim right now on the back and as far as the tire, I'll probably go with an ATV tire.
Here's the question, has anyone changed the rims on their lawn tractor to something other than stock? Also does anyone know where I can get 12" 5 lug rims that look cool for my tractor? I tried asking Cub Cadet, but they told me that they didn't have alternative rims. If anyone can help, please let me know.
Thanks!

Before you buy ask the following question. "If I need it serviced, do you do the repairs here or do you send it away?" The answer will almost always be they send it away. Being an independent dealer, I see a lot of Craftsman mowers for repair, the tractors are good, but the mower decks leave a lot to be desired. The running joke in here is to call them "Crapsman" Like most everything branded under a Sears name, someone else makes the mowers for them and that is Husqvarna. I know their prices are very attractive, and the mowers look sharp, but check out an independent dealer first before you buy from Sears, and ask to see if they have anything that would work for you.

MTD makes about 70% of all lawn and garden equipment on the market and always has. If you go to their web site you can see all of the brands that they own. Also look at the frone end and steering assemblies and compare them to others like Craftsman, they are identical because MTD makes their stuff too.
