I had tubes installed in my Turf Tires on my JD 4720 to fill with fluid.


The tire store used cheap generic knock off brand tubes that was thin as bicycle tubes.
No Joke.

I've had 3 rear tubes & 1 front tubes to split wide open.
12+ inches.

I'm changing back to tubeless as my other two JD's are, at each failure & refilling with Fluid.

Lesson learned = ONLY USE USA MADE NAME BRAND INNER TUBES especially when filled w fluid.

You wouldn't believe the difference in thickness.

I hope this saves someone the hassle & $$ that I spent Learning the Hardway.

My local tire shop couldn't find Titan tires when I needed to replace the 8 year old front tires of my JD so they supplied Carlisle. Two years later I went to another tire shop and he had new Titans for me in 3 days. A little bit more money than the Carlisles, but they last longer than two years....
