PHILTOP 16x8-7 Lawn Mower & Golf Cart Turf Tires Set of 2 — 4PR Durable, Directional Tread

PHILTOP 16x8-7 lawn mower and golf cart turf tires are aggressive, all-terrain 16" diameter, 8" wide, 4-ply rated tires sold as a set of two for improved traction and durability on turf, sand, and off-road surfaces.

These PHILTOP tires are built to replace small vehicle tires on golf carts, lawn tractors, and utility carts where a balance of traction and turf protection is needed. With a directional, self-cleaning tread pattern and a robust 4-ply rubber construction, they offer enhanced grip on loose and mixed surfaces while resisting punctures and abrasions. Designed for rims with a 7" diameter, each tire measures 16x8-7 and carries a maximum load index of 157 lbs and an F speed rating.

How do these tires perform on soft or muddy ground?

The tread features wide, open directional lugs that shed mud and maintain bite on soft ground, helping forward momentum and reducing wheel spin. While aggressive, the pattern balances traction and flotation so the tire won't immediately sink on looser soils.

• Directional, wide-open lugs for mud release and consistent traction
• 5 mm tread depth for extended life and deeper grip
• Engineered for loose loam, sand, and intermediate soils

Will these tires damage my turf or lawn?

Although these tires are more aggressive than smooth turf tires, their 8" width helps distribute weight to reduce concentrated pressure. They are suitable when you need better traction than a standard lawn tire, but if minimal turf marking is essential, consider softer, smoother tread alternatives.

• 8" section width provides broader contact area to reduce gouging
• 4-ply construction balances durability with surface conformity
• Directional tread designed to roll clean rather than drag clods

What are the exact specifications and installation notes?

Each tire is 16 inches in overall diameter with an 8-inch width and fits a 7-inch rim. The tire has a 4-ply rating, a section width of 199 mm, a 5 mm tread depth, and is rated for up to 157 lbs per tire at the manufacturer’s recommended air pressure of 24 PSI.

• Tire size: 16x8-7; overall diameter: 16 in; rim diameter: 7 in
• Ply rating: 4PR; max load-index: 157 lbs; speed rating: F
• PSI: 24 recommended; rim width: 6 in; aspect ratio: 57

Are rims included and how do I confirm fit?

Rims are not included with this set — you receive two loose tires only. Before ordering, measure your current tire and rim dimensions (printed on the sidewall of the existing tire) to ensure a correct replacement match.

• Set of 2 tires only; rims sold separately
• Verify existing tire sidewall markings for exact size match
• Recommended to mount by a professional or with proper tools for safety

Who is this for? These PHILTOP 16x8-7 tires suit owners of golf carts, small ATVs, utility vehicles, and lawn tractors who need stronger traction across varied off-road conditions without upgrading to full off-road tires. Choose this set if you require improved mud shedding and durability on mixed terrain, can accommodate a slightly more aggressive tread on turf, and have a 7" rim size. If minimal turf marking or a very smooth ride is your top priority, consider a softer turf-specific tire instead.
