I am looking for information on what size Narrow wheels and tires I can buy to put on my LT 2138 heavy duty. On sharp turns, the wide front tires tear up the grass, I'm thinking the narrow,rounded tires like I have on my 127 cub might be better. Any thoughts? Thanks,RichP

The key thing that will determine what you can put on is the length of the spindle and how much clearance your gonna have with another size.
Most older Cubs have 3" long spindles.
If yours has that, the sky is the limit as long as nothing interferes with the turning radius.

I would look for a set of 6" rims off the old IH lawn mowet/tractor series.
I know they will fit on the IH garden tractor spindles without any problems, but not sure about how well they will fit on the newer MTD cubs.
