Whether you are restoring traction after a puncture or completing a scheduled tire replacement, this component delivers the fit and performance your machine demands.
Key Features
- Heavy-Duty 16-Ply Construction — The 16-ply rating gives this tire the load capacity and puncture resistance needed to handle the weight and stresses of large telescopic boom lifts operating on rough terrain.
- RT HBR Tread Pattern — The rough-terrain harbor tread design bites into uneven and soft ground surfaces, maintaining traction and stability during travel and positioning on challenging job sites.
- Genuine OEM Specification — As an authentic Genie part, this tire matches the exact 18-625 size and construction specification of the original, so it mounts to the wheel assembly without modification or adaptation of the rim.
- Broad S-Series Compatibility — Fits the S-80, S-80X, S-85, S-80 XC, S-85 XC, S-80 HF, and S-85 HF, covering standard, crossover, and high-float boom lift variants within the S-80 and S-85 range.
- Restored Stability and Drive Performance — A worn or damaged tire compromises the machine's ability to travel safely across a site and maintain level positioning. Replacing it with the correct tire restores full drive capability and platform stability.
- Safety-Critical Fitment — On aerial boom lifts, tire integrity is directly linked to machine stability and safe operation at height. Using the correct OEM-specified tire ensures the machine performs within its rated design parameters.
The tires on a telescopic boom lift carry the full weight of the machine, its load, and its operator while enabling travel across job sites that often include uneven, soft, or debris-covered surfaces. A 16-ply rough-terrain tire like this one is engineered to resist sidewall damage and punctures under that demanding load, while the HBR tread pattern channels the machine's drive force into usable traction. When a tire loses structural integrity — through puncture, sidewall failure, or excessive wear — the machine can develop a lean or become difficult to drive, creating instability that is particularly dangerous when the platform is elevated. Replacing a failed tire promptly with the correct OEM part restores the machine to its designed operating condition.
