The Carlstar Turf Glide is a specialty lawn and garden tire engineered for equipment where protecting the ground beneath is just as critical as getting the job done. Carlstar — formerly marketed under the iconic Carlisle brand — carries over 100 years of specialty tire heritage into the Turf Glide line, purpose-built for golf cart, closed-community cart, and grounds maintenance applications where turf preservation is the top priority.
At the heart of the Turf Glide's design is its wide-flotation, round contour profile, which distributes the machine's load evenly across the contact patch. This minimizes ground pressure and prevents the grass tearing, soil compaction, and surface damage that aggressive tread designs can cause. A tall sidewall construction adds a layer of shock absorption, delivering a smoother, more comfortable ride over uneven terrain while further protecting delicate turf surfaces.
Key Features:
- Turf-Friendly Round Contour Profile — Puts more rubber on the ground evenly, reducing concentrated ground pressure and protecting grass from damage
- Wide Flotation Design — Distributes equipment loads for better performance without denting or compacting soft turf surfaces
- Tall Sidewall Construction — Absorbs impact and improves ride comfort across uneven lawn and course terrain
- Rounded Shoulder for Side-Hill Traction — Optimized tread and shoulder geometry increases traction on slopes while keeping surface disturbance to a minimum
- Non-Highway Service (NHS) Rated — Purpose-built for off-road turf and grounds maintenance use
- Durable Rubber Compound — Built for long service life and damage resistance through repeated seasonal use
- Residential and Commercial Ready — Suitable for homeowner applications and professional golf course or grounds care operations alike
One of the original golf cart tires and a traditional course classic, the Carlstar Turf Glide is trusted by both residential users and professional turf managers. Wide flotation cart tires from Carlstar are the ideal choice for closed community cart and golf course applications, designed to distribute loads for heavier duty performance and constructed from durable rubber compounds that minimize damage to turf and similar terrain. Available in multiple sizes to accommodate a wide range of lawn, garden, and golf cart equipment platforms.
