Does anyone have the measurements on the BKT TR-315 23x10.5-12 mounted on 8-8.5" wide rims?

I have the AGs, but I'll be South of Cancun until Saturday night, so I can't get measurements until then.

Here are some photos of them along with Carlisle turfs from January, before mounting..

I have some too but not mounted so I can't give an accurate size after inflation

Yeah I just wanted measurements to compare them to the deestones. It seems like they are in-between the true measurement the tru-powers are and the small size the deestones are. 

@HyperPete yeah I don't need the measurements right now but when you get a chance it would be great to have them for this thread.

I wrote up a post back at number 77 about those.

They're definitely a site bigger than the itty bitty Deestones.

If the thread(s) above don't have the measurements, I'll have them Sunday.

Cheers & beers!

These tires are 18x9.50-8. The rims are an inch wider than standard "wide" front wheels. 

 

I believe these front tires are available again

Here we have some BKT TR315 Trencher/Agricultural tires. 

23 x 10.50 x 12

 

I don't have these mounted yet. They measure 21 3/4" x 9 1/2" as setting. They'll definitely grow some with the rated 20 lbs air pressure. 

 

4 ply. 

 

These are available online for anywhere from $90 to $120 each all year. I paid $80 each on a sale. November 2024. 

 

 

I believe these will be excellent for our particular usage. I like a slightly heavier duty tire than most. These have a good aggressive sharp square edged full width bar 45⁰ ish AG tread which should self clean nicely and also retain decent ride quality for those who like a smoother tire. 

 

 

My usage is on mid 70s C Series. Stock size was 8.5 wide. The added couple inches MAY cause clearance issues with Automatics. Spacers solve that.
