FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Turf terrain traction; Solid tire model; Upgraded durability; . OVERVIEW: The Carlisle Reliance Flat Proof Smooth is an all season tire manufactured for lawnmowers and garden tractors. This model was designed for zero-turn mowers.Excellent turf terrain performance is offered with this model. The tire features a special smooth footprint that helps to maintain consistent surface contact at all times. As a result, the tire manages to greatly improve its soft and loose terrain grip. These elements allow the tire to ensure its consistent forward motion on various terrains. This helps the tire conquer turf terrains without damaging the grass field.This is a solid tire. It was manufactured using a specially formulated compound and a flat-proof design to protect the tire during its performance. They help prevent punctures, cuts, and other damage that may cause the tires downtime. Avoiding damage helps the tire perform at its best capability. This ensured the tires secure performance without the need for air pressure.The Carlisle Reliance Flat Proof Smooth was designed with a bias-ply construction. This structure maintains the ideal tire shape under load and driving pressure. As the tire does not deform, it is able to securely carry and withstand heavy loads. The tires performance guarantees a safer heavy-duty performance.This is a bias ply tire. Due to the tire’s internal construction and size, it is possible that the tire will look deformed. Smaller bias ply tires do not have reinforced constructions that can keep the tire from deforming. The bias construction and the small tire’s non-reinforced internal structure allow the tire to fold in when it is deflated or not properly inflated. This is not constructional damage or an issue; it is a normal occurrence with such tires. In such cases, the tire needs to be mounted and inflated to the proper PSI or, in some instances, an inner tube needs to be added. The proper PSI and the inner tube are able to maintain the tire’s ideal shape, preventing the bias plies from looking deformed. This ensures their performing safety and durability. The photo is a representation of the tire’s possible deformation, it does not represent the specific tire model, size, tread pattern and application. This specific tire model features a BIASED ply construction. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
