Tire Options For Heavy Duty Equipment
A skid steer on a demolition site and a wheel loader in a sand pit need different tires, and the wrong pick costs you flats, traction, or tread life. S&S Tire stocks skid steer tires, loader tires, and earthmover tires and handles foam fill conversion, so every machine gets matched to its ground from one vendor.
Key Takeaways:
- Match skid steer tires to soil, rock, or scrap
- Foam filled tires stop flats but add machine weight
- Loader tread ratings run from soft ground to rock
- On-site crane truck service keeps equipment on the jobsite
How Do You Choose Between Pneumatic, Foam Filled, and Solid Skid Steer Tires?
Pneumatic tires give the best traction and smoothest ride, but one puncture parks the machine until it’s fixed. Foam filled and solid tires trade ride comfort and add weight for flat protection, so the right choice depends on what your machine drives over every day.
- Pneumatic skid steer tires: best traction and softest ride on dirt
- Foam filled tires: polyurethane fill stops flats on skid steers and forklifts
- Solid tires: maximum puncture resistance for recycling, demolition, and quarry work


Why Do Construction Crews Buy Skid Steer and Loader Tires from S&S?
S&S fits each tire to the machine and the ground it works, then backs it with foam fill, press, and on-site service instead of sending you to three vendors. We stock Bridgestone, Michelin, Goodyear, BKT, Galaxy, and more, and have served heavy industry across the Southeast for over 50 years.
- Crane truck service: earthmover tire changes without hauling equipment off site
- MSHA-certified technicians: cleared to work on your mine or quarry site
- On-staff TIA-certified trainer: OSHA-required tire handling training for your crew
