I feel like wheels are wheels. They wear out, either around the bolt, or the tread, and you have to replace them. You replace tires on your car every so often, and I don't see a difference with doing that for lawn mowers. Maybe we need some good pneumatic wheels, or even wheels with metal tread!:thumbsup:

You can not buy a better push mower than a snapper.
Every one else has tried and make a better cutting mower and has failed.
They are still the best mulching and bagging mower

Now I do not like their riding mowers. But if I ever was to get a zero turn it would be a snapper.

Now this may have been true years passed but not anymore. To many Company's too many mowers that are way ahead of Snapper. I kinda view Snapper like the Honda, they make a good mower yes and they have proven themselves in the residential market but until I see them being used in the commercial market I don't believe they are all that great a mower.

Wheels are wheels yes but it was getting bad I was having to replace them monthly untill I got the hr215 tires. Think about that 40 dollars a month in tires apx 10 a month in oil. 5 dollars every 3 months for a belt 30 every 3 months for blades and a yearly 15 for plug and filter. 7 months of mowing that's 375 dollars a year in just maintenance. That's why I found different solutions for these things in my thread "bought a new honda" you can see it. If ihad to do it again I wouldn't buy the honda.

The best 21 for commercial in my opinion is the toro proline. Hands down.

What I think are the best commercial mowers on the market right now would be, I'd have to say The Toro and Exmark with the Kawasaki engines. The thing is as far as top rated mowers go you can visit ten different places and get a list of the top 10 rated mowers on the market and every list will be different and have different mowers. I think if you honestly want to know what is the best the way to find out, is watch the professional maintenance crews on some of the golf courses, or that maintain these 2000 home sub-divisions and see what they are using. Talk to some of the owners and ask why they run what they have and why.
