i have a 2305 jd and the ind. tires are definately the way to go for this model at least. I mow the yard with mine and also get in the dirt, so it is nice to have the extra traction when needed. the concern was that i might tear up the yard, but that really has never been an issue. The ind. tires on this model really do well pretty much everywhere. I am actually thinking of upgrading to a 2320 or larger, and the ind. tires for the larger models are quite a bit taller and the lugs look like they are more aggressive. I have heard that they are still ok on the lawn for the most part, but i would love to hear from someone whp uses larger tractors with ind. tires on their yards. Thanks in advance

I have a 2305 and found a used john deere 5' rotary mower. Most of the time, the tractor has plenty of hp to run it, but it is almost just to heavy. I have to have my loader bucket on the front for sure when using it and also had to slightly modify how i hooked it up as the "limited" hitch that the 2305 has, wont pick it all the way off the ground. I just got a 4' and am getting rid of the 5' cause its just too much work for the 2305. I would say 2320 minimum for a 5 footer might cause less headaches. I dont mow that much anyway and the extra 1' wont really matter.
