The Genie 161973GT is a genuine OEM Tire, 17.5X25 22PR designed for Genie GTH telehandlers, including the GTH-1256 AF, GTH-1256, and GTH-1544. As a direct OEM replacement, this tire is built to the exact size and ply rating specified for these heavy-duty machines, ensuring a correct, secure mount on the wheel assembly without any guesswork. Sourced directly from Genie, part number 161973GT gives fleet managers and service technicians confidence that the replacement matches every dimension and load rating of the original. If your GTH telehandler is showing uneven wear, damage, or loss of traction, this is the correct replacement to restore full working capability.
Key Features
- OEM-Specified Size and Ply Rating — 17.5X25 22PR construction matches the exact load and inflation specs Genie engineers selected for these high-capacity telehandlers.
- Direct Wheel Assembly Fit — Mounts to the original wheel hub without modification, maintaining correct bead seating and rim clearance.
- Confirmed Fitment for GTH Telehandlers — Verified for the GTH-1256 AF, GTH-1256, and GTH-1544, covering the full range of these large-frame telehandler variants.
- Maintains Load-Handling Stability — A properly rated 22-ply tire supports the rated lifting and travel loads of these telehandlers; a worn or underrated tire compromises stability during material handling operations.
- Safety-Critical Replacement — Tires on a telehandler are a structural safety component; using a tire of the correct size, ply rating, and construction is essential for maintaining rated stability and safe travel on varied terrain.
The tire on a telehandler does far more than support the machine's weight — it is the primary interface between the chassis and the ground, directly affecting load stability, steering response, and safe travel on rough or uneven surfaces. On a large-frame machine like the GTH-1256 or GTH-1544, the 22-ply rating is engineered to handle the substantial forces generated during heavy lifts and loaded travel. When a tire degrades through puncture, sidewall damage, or excessive wear, the machine's rated capacity and stability margins are compromised, creating a risk during both lifting and transport cycles. Replacing it with the correct Genie OEM specification restores the machine to its intended performance and safety standard.
