How to decide on the best Tyre for your forklift

Most often when a company or an individual confronts the need to change a forklift tyre, they never think twice: they check with their operator / mechanic / friend, on which source can they have a deal: price, performance & pay-later (PPP).

People don't see Forklift Tyres as on Insurance for their expensive forklift. A good forklifit tyre, besides working for long hours, saves you fuel/energy, acts as a jogging-shoe for your forklift and protects the equipment against Mechanical & Electronic faults.

In today's China plus one strategy, people end up with lot of low cost tyres from Asian manufacturers. The right questions are not asked and the classical questions are no more relevant (Eg.: Is it 2 layer or 3 layer - the fact is that it doesn't matter).

Let us discuss here the conundrums in forklift tyre replacement.
