| I have a 1990s John Deere 14pz push mower. It runs like a top. I have pushed so much over the last 20 years that the tires are almost bald. Does it make any sense to replace them or is it just aesthetics? |

| I'd go with the chrome wheel package! One assumes that it pushes fine provided the wheels aren't too wobbly. Drive wheels w/o tread are certainly a pain if one is traversing sloped areas. |

| There's a couple of videos on youtube where the guy makes "tires" from old bicycle tires....cuts them to size and glues them on. One of them does what looks to be a good job; although it would be hard to imagine it lasting very long. Not much to lose I guess. Chuck http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COZBXl6edaQ |
