Carlisle Turf Master turf tire 23x10.50-12 — turf-friendly tread, U.S.-made traction for lawn tractors

Carlisle Turf Master 23x10.50-12 is a turf-and-garden tire built to protect grass while giving reliable traction for lawn tractors, mowers, and utility equipment.

The Carlisle Turf Master 23/1050-12 combines a turf-friendly tread pattern with a robust, U.S.-made construction to handle slopes, pull loads, and everyday yard work without gouging grass. This listing is for the tire only; rims and mounting hardware are not included. The tire’s size and tread geometry strike a balance between flotation and grip so you can move across lawns and garden paths with minimal turf damage.

How does this tire protect delicate turf while still offering traction?

The Turf Master design uses wide contact patches and shallow, rounded lugs that distribute weight evenly across grass, limiting rutting and crown marks. The tread pattern provides bite on soft soil and gentle rolling on manicured lawns for reduced surface disturbance.

• Wide footprint reduces ground pressure and wheel sinkage
• Rounded tread lugs minimize tearing of grass blades
• Balanced void-to-rubber ratio gives traction without aggressive digging

Will this tire fit my mower or garden tractor, and what should I check before ordering?
