From one extreme to the other. Those cheapo tires look like they'd be bald in 3 weeks.

No matter what you put tires on in the long haul you are better to go with good ones rather than cheapies .

Case in point those Michalins on mamma Dars' Caddy lasted over 80 thousand miles .

As far as foam in tires ,well worth it .Poke a hole in equipment tires and let the air out you are dead in water .

the mini loader tires, cost ~ $ 60 to foam fill and $40 a tire.
Spendy little devils, I concurr with Karl

I get the tires for a little under $20 a piece, fwiw.
