What 4.00-8 means

Every number on the sidewall is telling you something. Here's this one, decoded:

  • 4.00Section widthAbout 4 inches across the widest part of the tire.
  • –ConstructionBias-ply. The plies run diagonally, which gives a stiff, tough sidewall.
  • 8Wheel diameterFits a 8-inch wheel. This is the number that has to match your rim exactly.

Size is only half the answer

Two 4.00-8 tires can be built for very different jobs. Tread decides most of it: a turf tread protects the lawn, a lug or bar tread digs in, and a sawtooth or stud tread is for snowblowers and loose ground. Ply rating matters too if the machine carries a load. Tell us the machine and what it does and we'll match it.

Other sizes on an 8" wheel

These share your rim diameter. Whether one of them will actually work depends on rim width, load range and fender clearance. Ask us before you switch.

4.00-8 questions, answered

4.00: About 4 inches across the widest part of the tire. –: Bias-ply. The plies run diagonally, which gives a stiff, tough sidewall. 8: Fits a 8-inch wheel. This is the number that has to match your rim exactly.

It depends on the machine and the ground. Turf treads are for mowing without tearing up the grass, lug and bar treads are for traction in dirt and on slopes, and sawtooth or stud treads suit snowblowers. Tell us what the machine does and we'll point you at the right one.

We carry 4.80-8, 15x6.00-8, 16x6.50-8, 16x7.50-8, 18x6.50-8, 18x7.00-8, 18x7.50-8, 18x8.50-8, 18x9.50-8, 20x8.00-8, 20x10.00-8, 20x10.50-8, 22.5x10.00-8 in the same 8-inch wheel diameter. Sharing a rim diameter doesn't guarantee a swap will work, though. Rim width, load range and clearance all have to line up. Call (320) 363-7246 and we'll tell you straight whether a change makes sense.

Stock moves, so the honest answer is to check. Send us the size through the availability request on this page or call (320) 363-7246. We'll tell you what we have on the shelf, what load ranges are available and how fast we can get anything we'd need to order.
