I'm needing to replace my zero turn tires this spring. Calling my tractor dealer tires start at $110 each, ouch. So I started searching and found tires of the same size (23x10.5-12) from $50-70ea both localy from other dealers and from the 'net (plus shipping of course). A question that arose from this search is number of ply's. We have about 10 acres we mow, and it seems once a month or so we're needing to repair a flat tire, from an unseen piece of metal, sharp stick, etc. Is it worth the extra money (about $10 ea + shipping ~$20-30set) for a 6ply vs a 2 or 4ply found locally? Will an extra ply have much more puncture resistance? Obviously something like a nail is going in no matter what, but in general.
Thanks.
