Carlisle CSL 24 R-1 Farm Tire
Tackle field work with confidence on the Carlisle CSL 24. This R-1 farm tire uses a classic bar-lug design to deliver traction in soft ground, and its open shoulders shed mud to keep the lugs biting. A reinforced casing and durable compound resist stubble, cuts, and day-to-day wear. From pulling implements and mowing pasture to road runs between fields, the CSL 24 provides the steady grip and value growers count on.
Why Choose the CSL 24
The Carlisle CSL 24 focuses on what matters in the field, traction, durability, and predictable handling. Open R-1 bar lugs clear mud and residue so the tire keeps pulling in loam, clay, and mixed soils. A sturdy casing and proven compound handle daily field work and transport while the tread geometry spreads load for stable steering and even wear. If you want a no-nonsense farm tire that hooks up and wears evenly across a range of tractors and implements, the CSL 24 is a smart pick.
Specifications and Sizes
Start by confirming your current size, load rating, and rim requirements. Check the sidewall and your equipment manual or tractor plate for approved sizes such as 11.2-24, 12.4-24, or metric formats like 280/85R24. Match the load index or ply rating to your work, verify rim width, and note whether your setup is tube-type or tubeless. For duals or staggered fitments, replace tires in axle pairs to keep rolling circumference consistent, and reach out if you need help reading your size.
Applications and Fitment Guidance
The Carlisle CSL 24 suits compact, utility, and mid-size tractors used for general tillage, hay, pasture care, and loader work. Its bar-lug pattern is optimized for drive axles, and it can also serve on compatible implements that need aggressive tread. For mixed field-to-road duty, run proper inflation and follow recommended speed limits. If you primarily operate on turf or hardpack, consider whether an R-1 is appropriate, and always confirm size, load, and rim specs before ordering.
Pricing and Value
Price depends on size, load or ply rating, and configuration. Larger diameters and higher capacities typically cost more, and tube-type versus tubeless can affect installed price. Consider lifecycle value too, steady traction, even wear, and a strong casing help cut downtime and replacement cost.

CSL 24 vs Other R-1 Tire Options
Within R-1 tires, differences center on lug depth, casing design, and soil targets. The Carlisle CSL 24 emphasizes dependable traction and value in typical row-crop and pasture conditions. If you often work saturated, heavy soils, consider deeper-lug choices or R-1W options for extra bite. If you split time on gravel or hardpack, a balanced R-1 like the CSL 24 can deliver grip without harsh road manners when properly inflated.
R-1 vs R-1W: Which should you choose?
R-1 tires use a traditional agricultural bar-lug design for broad, all-around traction. R-1W variants add deeper lugs for more penetration and grip in wet or heavy soils. If your fields stay saturated or you need maximum pull, R-1W may be the better fit. For mixed conditions and regular road transfers, standard R-1 often rides more predictably and wears more evenly.
Maintenance and Care Tips
Get the most from the CSL 24 by setting cold inflation to match load and duty, then rechecking as temperatures change. Avoid overloading, confirm ballast is balanced, and replace in axle pairs to keep diameters matched. Inspect tread and sidewalls for stubble, cuts, or embedded debris and address issues promptly. Store out of direct sun when possible and move equipment periodically to reduce flat spotting and promote even wear.
