Good Morning - I have an old T1600 lawn mower that just won't quit... sadly my wife ran over a set of nasty bunch of thorns that tore the tire apart. I'd just as soon replace both wheels but I can't find any that are clearly compatible online. Anyone able to tell me if these would match up? LINK to tire

Ended up putting new tires and tubes on the old hubs for all 4 as it was too dang hard to source right size fresh ones. That's working out OK but the PTO belts keep fouling I'm on the 3rd set in 3 months. Just about ready to throw in the towel here

Belts that die way to soon, check:
The tensioner bearings and pulley for smoothness and not worn out if round.
Lower PTO pulleys, make sure there is no lip on them to fray the belts.
And lastly make sure all pulleys are in near perfect alignment after replacing or verifying parts.
