product details:

Lawn mower wheels are seemingly simple components, but they play a crucial role in the maneuverability and stability of your mower. Here’s a comprehensive look at their functions, types, features, and replacement considerations:

Functions:

• Support: Lawn mower wheels support the weight of the mower and allow it to move freely across the lawn.
• Maneuverability: The wheels enable you to steer the mower and navigate around obstacles in your yard.
• Stability: The design and size of the wheels contribute to the mower’s stability on uneven terrain or slopes.

Types of Lawn Mower Wheels:

There are two main types of lawn mower wheels based on their position on the mower:

1. Front Wheels (Caster Wheels): These are typically smaller and freely swivel, allowing for easy turning and maneuverability. They might have:

   • Solid Plastic Tires: Common on lower-powered push mowers, these offer a simple and lightweight option.
   • Pneumatic Tires (Optional): Found on higher-end mowers, these inflatable tires provide better shock absorption and improved traction on uneven terrain.

2. Rear Wheels (Drive Wheels): These are generally larger than the front wheels and might be the driving wheels on some mower models. They can have:

   • Solid Rubber Tires: These offer durability and puncture resistance, suitable for most mowing conditions.
   • Pneumatic Tires (Common): Inflatable tires on rear wheels provide better traction, shock absorption, and a smoother ride, especially on rougher terrain.
   • Traction Patterns (Treads): Some rear wheels have tread patterns on the tires for improved grip on slopes or wet grass.
