Internet is full of them. I usually use ebay because of great prices, usually free shipping......"fast and free", and usually 2 days from ordering the tires being on my doorstep..... and I don't worry about CC security.
I've been using ATV tires on my lawn mowers to get a soft ride. Some come with stiff sidewalls and 30 psig rating and the ones I like come with 5 psig, 360# rating with soft sidewalls.....specify 15 psig max for bead seating. Ply ratings are 2 and 4 but that doesn't necessarily mean a stiff sidewall for a 4 ply. When you see a 30 psig rating (not max to seat pressure) sidewalls are stiffer and ride is harsher regardless of ply rating.
Take these for example: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2PK-22x11-8-22-11-8-22x11-00-8-Golf-Go-Kart-ATV-Tire-4PLY-P322-Dimple-Knobby/361564940236?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3D12f93b37b9384f56a7d7580be5a2167c%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26mehot%3Dag%26sd%3D361564940236%26itm%3D361564940236&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507...............
I have two pair. I deliberately bought the 8" wheel size replacing the OEM 10 and 12" wheel sizes on my ZTs because the balloon area is much larger and when you hit a bump you have a larger volume of air to compress so it compresses less and the ride is softer. The ZTs weigh over 1000# plus my weight so the 360 @5 psig doesn't work. I run them at 10 psig and get a good "spongy" ride yet I have enough sidewall strength at that pressure to run up and down my 30* pond banks at whatever angle I choose. The studs do the best for traction on hills over bar lug and more aggressive (ATV usage types) yet if you don't get carried away doing ZTs in your lawn, you can mow without tearing up your turf.
In all I probably have bought over a dozen sets of tires for mowing machines of various brands, from numerous sources (everybody doesn't stock what I'm looking for) and all are first class tires, no gripes, no returns, no problems.
There are 6 ply, stiff sidewall, aggressive tread tires out there too. Just depends on what you are looking for.

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
