Mean Green Mowers to feature Michelin tire line

GREENVILLE, S.C. – Michelin’s X Tweel line is available on select Mean Green Mowers. The line consists of the X Tweel Turf and the X Tweel Turf airless radial tire.

The X Tweel Turf is designed to reduce downtime and require less maintenance. A feature of the Michelin X Tweel Turf airless radial tire is a consistent hub height designed to help provide an even cut.

“In working with the Mean Green team, we were able to assist them in furthering their innovation and sustain ability of commercial electric mowers,” said Olivier Brauen, vice president of Michelin Tweel Technologies.

The Mean Green Stalker stand-on ZTR and CXR-60 ride-on ZTR models will have Michelin X Tweel Turf 18-inch drive wheels. The Stalker stand-on will also have 13-inch caster airless radial tires.

The 24-inch X Tweel Turf is also now available as a replacement for Mean Green 52-inch and 60-inch ride-on mowers, instead of the standard 24x12x12 tire.

“In 2008, we decided there was a better way to build a zero-turn mower,” said Joe Conrad, president of Mean Green Mowers. “Our collaboration with Michelin continues our environmental journey.”
