Galaxy Turf Special R-3 Lawn and Turf Tire

The Galaxy Turf Special R-3 is a purpose-built agricultural bias tire engineered for lawn and garden tractors, zero-turn mowers, golf course maintenance equipment, and light utility vehicles where protecting delicate grass and turf surfaces is the top priority. Carrying an R-3 turf tread classification, the Turf Special R-3 delivers an ideal balance of traction, flotation, and turf-safe performance across a broad range of professional and residential equipment configurations.

Developed with direct input from golf course superintendents representing a wide variety of geographical regions, the Turf Special R-3 has established itself as one of the most trusted golf-turf and sand tires in the industry — setting the benchmark for superior flotation and minimized soil disturbance.

Key Features:

• R-3 Turf Tread Classification — Low-profile, widely spaced lugs minimize soil disturbance and prevent turf scarring during operation
• Superior Flotation Design — Wide footprint distributes machine weight over a broader contact area, reducing ground pressure, rutting, and compaction to protect root systems
• Bias-Ply Construction — Reinforced internal structure maintains ideal tire shape under load, enhancing load capacity and long-term durability
• Smooth, Rounded Shoulders — Gentle sidewall transitions reduce tearing and scuffing when turning on delicate grass or sandy surfaces
• Turf-Safe Tread Pattern — Optimized tread geometry delivers reliable traction on grass, soft terrain, and sandy conditions without aggressive ground engagement
• Ideal for Sandy and Turf Service — Specifically suited for golf courses, orchards, and commercial landscaping environments
• Commercial and Residential Ready — Performs equally well in professional turf maintenance operations and residential lawn care applications
• Broad Equipment Compatibility — Designed for lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers, compact tractors, golf course turf equipment, orchard machinery, and light utility vehicles
