Features to Know About

Super Turf Tread for Clean, Controlled Cuts

When turf appearance matters, aggressive tires can do more harm than good. The K500 Super Turf tread is designed to provide reliable traction while helping reduce scuffing and turf damage on finished lawns.

Siped Lugs for Added Traction Without Tear-Up

The added edges in each lug improve grip, especially during turns and direction changes. This helps your mower stay controlled without digging into grass, even during frequent starts, stops, and tight maneuvers.

More Rubber for Durability and Longer Tire Life

With more rubber on the ground than many competing turf tires, the K500 helps resist punctures and slow wear. The result is a mower that tracks the same from the first pass to the last, keeping the day focused on clean results instead of tire problems.

Video Transcript for Review of Kenda Lawn Mower Tires - K500 Super Turf Tire - KE97YJ

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Kenda K-500 Super Turf tire. Now this tire is specifically designed for turf mowing, whether you're running a commercial mower or taking care of larger residential properties. The big advantage is how this balances traction and lawn protection. The super turf tread is going to grip very well when you're turning or working on slopes, and it's engineered not to scuff or tear up finished lawns. The lugs are siped, as I hope you can see here, those cuts inside the lugs there.

So that's gonna give you extra control and grip without being aggressive on the grass. Now, from a fit and capacity standpoint, as we have stamped here in our tire, this is an 18 by 7.5 by 8 size tire. This is designed for an eight inch by five and three eighths inch wheel, and this has a section width of about 7.6 inches, and an overall inflated diameter of 18 inches. This is a 4-ply load range B bias ply tire and it does not require a tube. Each tire can handle up to 705 pounds.

It speeds up to 10 miles per hour with a maximum inflation pressure of 24 PSI. Now, this is actually the same style of tire that's trusted by many commercial zero turn and high-end mower manufacturers, so this is built for consistent professional level performance. The rubber compound has a higher rubber content, which is gonna help resist punctures and slow down wear, meaning you're gonna get longer service life compared to lighter duty turf tires. By the way, I wanted to mention, sometimes these tires can come to you slightly misshapen or disfigured or lopsided, and this tire is looking pretty good, but that's pretty common for tires that are not mounted on a wheel and inflated. They get pressed and pushed down during shipping, so sometimes it can be kind of lopsided.

If that's the case with the tire that you receive from us, nothing to worry about. Once you get it mounted and inflated, it'll go back to its normal shape and you'll be good to go. Now this is strictly for off route, off road use only, for turf use only. This is not designed for highway or road use, so make sure you keep it on the grass. But if you happen to have any other questions, whether it's about this or anything else that we have here at etrailer, don't hesitate to reach out.

We wanna make sure that you're getting exactly what you need. Well, again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

Tires arrived today and are just what I'm looking for. They are to replace the original 18x7.50-8 tires on my Toro 42" zero turn mower. The tires were shipped in a box to protect from shipping damage which is much appreciated.
