Fit my craftsman mower perfectly. They are about equally made to the genuine craftsman ones i pulled off. Only thing i noticed different is that theres more of a metal lip where the bolt goes and where these are more plastic. These fit more snug though than the originals ever did in a good way. I always felt that the amount of play side to side is what lead the orignal drive wheels to tear up the teeth and crap out just after 3 years of once a week mowing. You would think that no big deal, you can just push the mower without the pull assist. Think again. These kept getting stuck in the metal gears and locking up. Anywho, all the local hardware and yard stores didnt have them in stock, but wanted twice as much for special order. Made getting these on amazon a no brainer. Hopefully these are more durable. Only time will tell.Best price for wheels for my Craftsman front drive self propelled mower. These were to replace the front wheels on my mower which were pretty worn. The original wheels on the mower wore out fast so I do not expect these to last a great deal of time either. I am hoping for a couple of seasons at least. I just got them and have used mower once since installation, but all is well so far. Installation took about 5 minutes using standard socket set. The nut is set inside a dip in the wheel so getting the nut off may be difficult without a socket set. Not sure about durability at this time.Only a minor item was the wheels were difficult to track. Delivery was only one day late. Ordered on the May 28 with delivery by June 7. Arrived only one day late that may have been caused by the holiday. Wheels were as expected - good quality and easy to install. Would have given a 5 star rating but with not being able to track the order properly reduced to 4 stars.The wheel appear to be just fine. I wanted gray ones to match my originals and they are pictured as gray but the ones that arrived are white. To be fair, the details do say "white" but which part do you trust? It seems like the photo should be the final say.These wheels fit my Craftsman self-propelled mower perfectly, and are exactly the same design as the originals. They are easy to install with a socket wrench a little multi-purpose axle grease. The original wheels failed when the plastic gear teeth on the inside surface stripped out, but that's a basic design flaw and they do last several years at least. I recommend this item.This is the third set of these wheels I’ve had to replace. The problem lies with design of the mower. The wheel mounting hardware is easily bent, with normal mower use and chews up the drive sprocket located on the inside of these wheels. They normally last about one season of weekly mowing.These were really simple to put on and so far have work very well.It looks like the OEM part for my lawnmower.So far working good.Got old lawnmower from my dad so not sure how old, but I'd say 20 years is a good conservative guess. Worked fine until two years ago, in early 2018. Drive wasn't great then as rubber on tires wore smooth so bought these replacements. Fit fine, looked identical, and I thought these should work great. Drive started acting up a bit late last year but not too bad then this year nothing. I actually took drive apart as I figured can't be the wheels "just got new ones." After that waste of time, and drive found to be in perfect working condition, I took the "new" wheels off. As you can see for pictures, "old" original wheel on left, rubber worn smooth but drive teeth immaculate, not so much with these new wheels, teeth are gone after two seasons. My lawn is not big by any stretch, a 25 min job, with one small hill on side. I take care of my tools, don't abuse, and as as evident from this, I try to keep them going wit proper maintenance and replacement of worn parts! Lawn mower still working great, except for these replacement wheels.Perfect fit for front wheel drive craftsman lawn mower, but very expensive, last time I brought (5-6 years ago they were $10 each wheel direct from sears). Guess someone is making money from Sears's Spares.But they were delivered on time and they work like they should, sad no one has come up with a inner "Metal Tooth Cog" that does not wear out so fast as the original plastic ones.Would give 5 stars if they were more reasonably priced.direct fit replacement for husqvarna mowers, Unfortunately, nobody has designed a drive wheel that has a metal gear rather than the plastic gear. If a pebble or debris gets trapped in there it chews the plastic teeth & then you have to buy a new wheel. This is not a slight against these wheels, It is a Husqvarna manufacturing design fault IMHO.Came on time and they fit and work great ....biggest issue is that the product is hard plastic so eventually they will wear down and strip ..this is the second set of wheels I have ordered lawnmower is ten years oldI was actually very pleased with the wheels because they fit perfectly. The only adjustment I had to make is replacing the original nut. I am very happy with my purchase
