LAWN MOWER WHEEL SIZES
Green Grippers Are A Perfect Upgrade For Your Lawn Mower
Most self-propelled mowers use the same old tread on all their wheels. Add Green Grippers to your lawn mower wheel and instantly feel the difference.
Green Grippers can be installed on most lawn mower wheels, making them a versatile upgrade for a wide range of models and terrains.
That’s why we have invented a way to increase the gripping power of your existing lawn mower wheels.
You need your lawnmower to navigate tight turns and uneven terrain while increasing its power to get it up hills.
Here’s a breakdown of different front wheel sizes and their pros and cons:
- 7 inches: This size is slightly smaller and more maneuverable than 8-inch wheels, making it a good choice for smaller lawns or tight spaces. However, it may not be as stable on uneven terrain without the use of treaded lawn mower wheels, like the Green Gripper.
- 8 inches: This is the most popular size for good reason. It offers excellent maneuverability and stability on a variety of terrain.
- 9 inches: This size offers more stability than 8-inch wheels, making it a good choice for larger lawns or uneven terrain. However, it may be less maneuverable in tight spaces.
You can check your owner’s manual or consult with the manufacturer to determine the correct size for your machine.

Yes, Green Grippers are specifically designed to improve traction on your lawn mower wheels. Here’s how they help:
- Increased Surface Area: The deep treads of Green Grippers significantly increase the contact area between the wheel and the ground. This extra grip helps prevent the wheels from slipping, especially on wet grass or uneven terrain.
- Enhanced Grip: The special tread pattern is designed to dig into the ground, providing superior grip compared to smooth tires. This is particularly beneficial on slopes or when mowing through thick grass.
When Green Grippers are most helpful:
- Wet Grass: Green Grippers excel in wet conditions where smooth tires are prone to slipping.
- Uneven Terrain: They provide extra stability when mowing on hills or bumpy surfaces.
- Thick Grass: If you have tall or dense grass, Green Grippers can help your mower power through without losing traction.
If you experience frequent wheel slippage, Green Grippers can be a valuable investment to improve your mowing experience and ensure a smoother, more efficient cut.


There are two main ways to measure your lawnmower wheels.
Measure the Wheel and Tire Diameter
This is the most common way and the measurement you’ll likely need for replacement purposes. You’ll need a measuring tape for this.
Lawn mower tires come in various sizes, with common diameters ranging from 10 to 16 inches. To measure the diameter of your specific lawn mower tire, follow these steps:
- Find the Wheels Size: Google search your particular lawn mower and see what size the wheels are.
- Measure the Diameter: Use a flexible measuring tape to measure the distance across the widest part of the tire, including the rubber. This measurement is the tire’s diameter.

Here are some additional tips for measuring a lawnmower’s front wheel:
If you’re unsure about the recommended wheel, consult your lawn mower manual.
If the wheel is too worn or damaged, you’ll want to replace the old wheels for new ones so the Green Gripper can attached to the lawn mower wheel.
Green Grippers are not designed to work on inflatable tires.
