MTD Genuine Parts 753-08175 8” x 2” Wheel Assembly, Black

The wheel was a perfect fit for my Troy Bilt lawn mower. I had to tinker a bit to realize that the gray hub covers the spokes of the wheel and had to be tapped off for installation of wheel. Thank goodness I had read other reviewers that stated that--- all need be done was placing a screw driver into the axle hole and tap the head of the screw driver with a hammer and the hub comes right off. After installation I placed the gray hub back onto the wheel. For those who are not exactly intuitive, this little gray disc is exactly like the old hub caps used on car tires. NOW to the wheel itself. It is a sturdy built wheel with ball bearings and I agree with reviewers that this wheel is a stronger, sturdier and more robust than the original wheel.However, this statement is not to say the original was not adequate, because I bought this lawn mower 15 years ago and this is the first time having to replace a wheel.Buyer be aware to be sure to match the part number with wheel/s you need. I did not immediately realize in the part number is embedded the size of the wheel (in my case the diameter of the wheel is 8 inches). Search results in Amazon offered all types and choices of wheels for the part number I entered. For instance:12 inch wheels, front drive wheels and different function wheels pop up into the results. I went onto Troy Bilt site to look up the part number (I retained my mower's op. manual which had the parts number listed) and match it to the offerings on Amazon. So do a little reading and research to make sure you order what you need. Good fortune :-)

I was very impressed that they have sealed metal bearings.

I though 2 wheels came in the order, but it is only one. If you need to replace 2 back wheels you need to order 2 wheels. Other than that the wheel fits great.

Ordered these and it was easy to replace the rear wheels on my push mower. These seem well constructed compared to the ones that came on the mower. Highly recommend.

I had one of the wheels on my five year old Troy-Bilt snowblower fuse to the metal axle. While this wheel is also used on lawnmowers, it is also the exact copy of the wheel used on my snowblower. After I removed the old wheel and parts attached to the axle, the install of the new wheel was relatively easy. While the price of the wheel was on the high side, the quality of the wheel itself and internal bearings was very good. The wheel operates as designed and rolls freely.

The OE wheels had bushings, which is fine until they seize up, which is the case on my TB130. After I was able to unfreeze and remove them, with a little cleanup, these wheels fit right up, tightened up fine, and back in action. Sure, they are 2-3x the price of the knockoffs, but no more bushings to go bad....smooth like silk now.

Worked perfect for the factory wheel I was very glad.

Way overpriced but no other option was available for this mower.
