Pneumatic-Type Forklift Tire Sets
Shop bundled forklift tire sets for forklifts that use pneumatic-type tires. These pages are built for buyers who want a matched replacement package instead of shopping one tire size at a time.
Most products in this section are organized as 4-piece sets with 2 drive tires and 2 steer tires, along with select 6-tire sets for larger forklifts and higher-capacity applications.
Who These Sets Are For
This category is designed for buyers who already know they want to replace multiple tires on the truck at once and want a simpler way to shop common forklift size pairings.
- Choose a set if you are replacing all drive and steer tires together
- Choose a set if you want matched sizes and a cleaner replacement process
- Choose individual tires if you only need one size or one position
Available Constructions
Depending on the set, products in this category may include Pneumatic Tube-Type tires or Solid Resilient tires.
Pneumatic Tube-Type (TTF)
Uses a tire, tube, and flap. Commonly chosen for ride cushioning, shock absorption, and mixed indoor/outdoor use.
Best for: outdoor yards, uneven pavement, mixed surfaces
Solid Resilient (RS)
Flat-proof, pneumatic-shaped solid rubber tires chosen when puncture resistance, uptime, and longer service life matter more than ride softness.
Best for: debris-heavy environments, demanding operations
Simple rule: Choose pneumatic for cushioning and mixed-surface flexibility. Choose solid resilient when flats and downtime are the bigger problem.
Built Around Common Drive and Steer Pairings
These bundle pages are organized around common drive-and-steer size combinations used on many forklifts. That makes it easier to shop a matched set by paired sizes, compare available constructions, and move directly to a package that fits your truck's current tire configuration.
Common pairings help reduce guesswork when replacing the full set, especially when the drive tires and steer tires use different sizes.
4-Tire Sets vs 6-Tire Sets
- 4-piece sets are most common for standard forklifts using 2 drive tires and 2 steer tires
- 6-piece sets are used on larger forklifts and applications requiring additional tire positions
Always match the quantity and paired sizes to the configuration currently installed on your truck.
Common Equipment Makes
Pneumatic-type forklift tire sets in this section are commonly used on certain Toyota, Hyster, Yale, Mitsubishi, Caterpillar, Komatsu, UniCarriers, Hyundai, and Doosan forklifts that use these exact tire sizes and construction types.
Equipment make alone does not confirm fitment. Tire size, wheel compatibility, and tire construction still need to match your truck.
Need Individual Tires Instead?
If you are shopping for single pneumatic-type tires by size rather than a full set, visit our Resilient Solids & Pneumatics category to browse individual size pages and available constructions.
Before Ordering
Before ordering, always confirm:
- Your current drive tire size
- Your current steer tire size
- Wheel compatibility
- Whether you need Pneumatic Tube-Type or Solid Resilient construction
- Whether your truck uses a 4-tire or 6-tire setup
Verify exact tire size and fitment before ordering. If you are unsure which set matches your forklift, contact us for help before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pneumatic forklift tire set?
A pneumatic forklift tire set is a bundled package that includes matched drive and steer tires for forklifts that use pneumatic-type rims. Most sets include 4 tires (2 drive + 2 steer), though 6-tire sets are available for larger forklifts. Sets may include either air-filled pneumatic tube-type tires or flat-proof solid resilient tires, depending on the product.
What is the difference between pneumatic and solid resilient forklift tires?
Pneumatic tube-type forklift tires are air-filled and use a tire, inner tube, and flap. They provide better cushioning and shock absorption, making them a strong choice for outdoor yards and mixed surfaces. Solid resilient tires are flat-proof solid rubber tires that mount on the same pneumatic-style rims but cannot go flat. They are chosen when puncture resistance and uptime matter more than ride comfort.
Should I buy a forklift tire set or individual tires?
Buy a set if you are replacing all drive and steer tires at once — sets simplify the ordering process by bundling matched sizes together. Buy individual tires if you only need to replace one position or one size. For individual pneumatic-type tires by size, visit Resilient Solids & Pneumatics.
How do I know which tire set fits my forklift?
Check the tire sizes currently installed on your forklift — both the drive tires and steer tires. The sizes are molded on each tire sidewall in formats like 7.00-12 or 28x9-15. Match both sizes to a set listed in this category. Also confirm whether your forklift uses pneumatic-style split-rim wheels, as these tires are not compatible with cushion press-on wheels.
What forklift brands use pneumatic-type tires?
Pneumatic-type forklift tires are commonly used on certain forklifts from Toyota, Hyster, Yale, Caterpillar, Mitsubishi, Komatsu, UniCarriers, Hyundai, and Doosan, among others. However, equipment make alone does not confirm fitment. Always verify your exact tire sizes and wheel type before ordering.
Can I switch from pneumatic to solid tires on my forklift?
In most cases, yes. Solid resilient tires are designed to mount on the same pneumatic-style rims as tube-type tires, so they can often be used as a flat-proof replacement. Switching to solid tires eliminates puncture-related downtime but will result in a firmer ride. Verify that a solid option is available in your exact tire size before ordering.
