Replacement Forklift Tires – Find the Right Fit for Your Equipment

At Lift Atlanta, we understand that choosing the right forklift tires is crucial for performance, safety, and efficiency. Whether you operate an electric warehouse forklift or a heavy-duty outdoor lift, we offer high-quality replacement tires for all forklift classes.

Types of Forklift Tires

Different forklifts require specific tires based on the terrain, load capacity, and operational environment. Below, we break down the most common forklift tire types and their applications.

Cushion Tires – Ideal for Indoor Use (Class I, II, IV Forklifts)

Cushion tires are made of solid rubber and designed for use on smooth indoor surfaces such as warehouses and distribution centers.

These tires offer:

  • Excellent maneuverability in tight spaces
  • Lower rolling resistance for energy efficiency
  • Long-lasting durability on smooth, paved floors

Best for:

  • Electric Motor Rider Forklifts (Class I)
  • Electric Narrow Aisle Forklifts (Class II)
  • Internal Combustion Forklifts (Class IV) with Cushion Tires

Pneumatic Tires – Built for Rough Outdoor Terrain (Class I, IV, V Forklifts)

Pneumatic forklift tires come in two types: air-filled (traditional pneumatic) and solid rubber (solid pneumatic). These tires are used for outdoor applications where traction and durability are key.

  • Deep treads provide grip on gravel, dirt, and uneven surfaces
  • Shock absorption for a smoother ride on rough terrain
  • Heavy-duty construction for maximum load capacity

Best for:

  • Electric Motor Rider
  • Forklifts (Class I) – Outdoor Use
  • Internal Combustion Forklifts (Class IV) – Pneumatic Tires Option
  • Internal Combustion Forklifts (Class V) – Standard for Outdoor Use

Polyurethane Tires – Lightweight and High Traction (Class II, III Forklifts)

Polyurethane tires are often used on electric forklifts and walkie pallet jacks due to their lightweight, high load capacity, and excellent traction on smooth indoor floors.

  • Increased traction on warehouse floors
  • Lower rolling resistance improves energy efficiency
  • Ideal for lighter forklifts and pallet jacks

Best for:

  • Electric Narrow Aisle Forklifts (Class II)
  • Electric Motor Hand Trucks & Pallet Jacks (Class III)

When Should You Replace Forklift Tires?

To keep your forklift running safely and efficiently, look for these signs of wear and tear:

  • Bald or Smooth Treads – Reduces traction and increases the risk of slipping
  • Chunking or Cracking – Tires breaking apart can lead to unsafe operation
  • Flat Spots or Uneven Wear – Can affect stability and load handling
  • Reduced Cushioning – Increases vibration and wear on forklift components

    I had a really great experience ordering my Genie lift. Clark kept me posted on my order and even brought my lift to me when I couldn't pick it up.
