All-Season Lawn & Garden Tire

The Carlisle Sawtooth is an all-season tire built for lawn mowers and garden tractors. Its sawtooth tread pattern and flat footprint spread load evenly to protect turf while maintaining steady ground contact. The tire carries a 57 load index and A3 speed rating for speeds up to 9 mph. This 2-ply construction fits an 8-inch rim with a 16-inch overall diameter.

Upgrade From Worn Turf Tires

Replace cracked, bald or dry-rotted tires that slip on grass or leave deep ruts. The flat footprint reduces ground pressure so the machine tracks straight without tearing the lawn. A jump is worth it when the original tread no longer grips damp slopes or when steering feels vague on loose soil. The 4.8/4.00-8 size matches many factory-fitted wheels on compact garden tractors.

Suits Homeowners With Small Tractors

Ideal for owners of residential lawn mowers and light garden tractors that run an 8-inch rim and need turf-friendly traction. Not for buyers who need a higher ply rating for heavy payloads or who require a different rim diameter. The tire is sold without a wheel, so anyone without a compatible 8-inch rim must source one separately.

Questions about this item

What rim diameter does the 4.8/4.00-8 tyre require?

This tyre fits an 8-inch rim diameter, matching the 4.8/4.00-8 size designation.

How do I seat the bead on this 2-ply tyre without over-inflating?

Inflate gradually to the maximum pressure moulded on the sidewall; the 2-ply construction seats the bead at lower pressure than heavier tyres, so stop as soon as the bead pops into place.

When should I replace the tyre based on the 16-inch overall diameter?

Replace it when tread wear reduces the rolling diameter noticeably below 16 inches, when cracks appear on the black sidewall, or if the tyre no longer holds air.
