    Has anyone found better options for the pull behind Gravely PTO mower. these tires are 4.10-3.5 and I seem to have a lot of problems with keeping tires on this machine. the standard bearings do not last long. the tires are prone to flats and once flat they can be a PITA to get a tube back in.

    Run flats?
    Better bearing options?

    My next one will be the one with the rollers that looks indestructible!

    We fill the tires on our pull behind Progressives with foam. $40 each. Lasts about 10 years.

    What about the bearing options. seems like mine are very undersized and go out pretty quick.

    We use factory bearings. Grease them at every use. Get about a season out of them, then change them out.
