Tire sizes on a CZ 4817

I have a CZ 4817, and the tires are fairly old and leaky. I just deal with it by putting air in them every time I use it. I recently tried to level the deck, and found that I couldn't get the deck high enough. I set the cutting height to 3", but at the max height adjustment, the blades were lower than 3". So I'm thinking the tires may be the wrong size. By replacing the tires, I may be able to kill two birds with one stone.

What are the correct sizes?

Thanks, ILENGINE. The rears are right, but I'm not sure about the fronts. They are currently Kenda Corsas, and size printed on the sidewall is 4.10/3.5-5. I don't understand that sizing. 4.10/3.5-5? What is that? And is it the same as 11x4-5?

This is the Husqvarna forum, so... yeah.

Those specs don't match my machine. They must have made a change at some point. Mine has a single cyl Kohler Command Pro, and only one fuel tank.

Here is a photo of the ID sticker. I guess that COULD be 968 99 92 20.

well now, that's the same # on the spec sheet I posted. Hmmm.....

How about a couple clear pictures of the tires, which might show the sizes....?

Original tire spec's - - -

Front tire = 410/350-5, 4 PLY

Rear tire = 18x9.5-8

4.10/3.50x5 is approximately 11 inch in diameter. So maybe narrower than the spec'ed tire but same height.

Hmmm. Looks like tire size is not the reason I can't get my deck level. I don't think I can justify replacing the tires just to eliminate checking them before every use. I'll try the ATF trick, and see if that fixes the leaks. And look for other reasons for my deck issues.

Thanks, all, for the info.

How was that a waste of time? You guys informed me that I had the right size tires. That means that I know what size to get if I decide to buy any. And that I need to look further into what's wrong with my deck.
