I'm looking for a new set of tires for my Dixie Chopper 2750 Silver Eagle. It currently has the Carlisle Multi-Trac C/S which have made it to 950 hours, but the tread is getting a little thin on the inside edges of the tire. It almost looks like they have a camber on them. Also, one has had some sidewall rubbing that has left cracks in the sidewall. The size is 24x12x12. The mower is used to mow all of the lawn on our horse farm, probably about 5-7 acres of mowing when it is all said and done. But, there is a good bit of roading. It is about 1.5 miles from one end of our farm to the other along a county road. I see a lot of good reviews about the chevron/bar AT101 Carlisle tires, but I am worried they won't last any time at all on the pavement. I disliked the Multi-Tracs, but recently just loaded the tires with water, and the guy driving the mower says they do a lot better on the road sides, but have yet to try anywhere else. I know water won't keep them from plugging with mud. I have also seen people try UTV tires like the Carlisle Field Trax HD. I am just wondering what you guys have had good luck with on your mowers. If I didn't have the amount of road driving, I would have already ordered the AT101's, but until I know how they wear roading, I am scared they won't last nearly as long.
Also, would going to a 23x10.50x12 tire help with scuffing the sidewall? The deck only sticks out maybe an inch from the edge of the tire, so any time you're against a fence, it is really easy to rub the sidewall, and occasionally nick it.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
