The tires are multi track.  The rim is a little wider than the tire but it lets the knobs on the side lay flatter when the tread hits the ground or so I thank.  Will have to see if they are leagel or not 2 but I have some other set of rims that the standard tires will fit on.

those tires are used as the front tires on a stock mower.
Gotta love a good 'ol Briggs Flathead! :thumbsup:
