The Gladiator Turf tires have received mixed reviews, with significant concerns about their condition upon arrival and mounting difficulties.
The Gladiator Turf tires show promise in terms of performance and value, but are severely hampered by shipping and packaging issues. Many customers report receiving tires that are too deformed to mount properly, often requiring the use of tubes or rendering the tires unusable. While some users are satisfied with the tires' performance once mounted, the widespread issues with tire condition upon arrival significantly impact the overall customer experience and product reliability.
Positive highlights
Good traction and performance on various terrains, including slopes and loose dirt. Fair pricing and value for money. Suitable for different weather conditions. Good for lawn tractors and mowers.
Negative highlights
Many tires arrived extremely flattened and deformed, making mounting difficult or impossible. Some customers had to use tubes in these tubeless tires to get them to work. Several customers found the tires unusable due to their compressed state. Tread height reported as lower compared to some competing brands. Multiple instances of tire shops refusing to mount the tires due to their condition.

I don't know how this tire is. It comes compressed flat and so creased I don't know when I'll be able to be out on.

The turf tires I bought for my zero turn mower are wonderful. They grip on slopes without tearing up the lawn. I previously bought tires from Simple Tire for my tractor loader backhoe and the grip great in loose dirt. I believe the products they sale are very reasonably priced and a great value to any consumer. Thanx Simple Tire!

This is a lawn tractor tire. It [they] arrived squashed. The only way I could use the one I didn't return was to have a tube installed. It was too squashed to go on like a normal tubeless tire. The tread height is not very high [unlike a Carlisle tire]. Ended up putting on the Carlisle brand at my local dealer.

TIres came smashed flat and would not take their correct shape even after well over a month in the sun (the procedure recommended to me by simple tire. I spent around 6 hours and 2 intertubes total trying to get them mounted before I gave up and took them to a tire shop.
The tire shop gave up and had to use tubes in these tubeless tires and it took them a couple of tries to get them to actually bead.

I wouldn't buy tires from this company again. I received my pair of tires and when the fedex guy opened the door he didn't even wanna give them to me. These tires were completely flat and looked almost impossible to mount. So I accepted the delivery and called customer service. They didn't believe how bad they were so I sent them pictures and they said all turf tires were like that and my local tire installer would have no problem installing them. I didn't wanna even insult my tire guy by asking so I bailed bc they were impossible to mount and complete garbage.

This is a tire of all weather, it helps during winter to climb up a deep hill and is at ease with the heat during the summer, I would recommend this tire.
