The Genie 161974GT is a genuine OEM Wheel, 17.5-25 designed for Genie GTH telehandlers, including the GTH-1256 AF, GTH-1256, and GTH-1544. As a factory-original component, this wheel is built to the same specification as the part it replaces, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation. Cross-reference part number 161974GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. If you're keeping a high-capacity telehandler rolling on demanding job sites, this is the right wheel to have on hand.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Produced to Genie's original material and dimensional standards, this wheel delivers the structural strength and load-bearing capacity that heavy telehandler operation demands.
- 17.5-25 Sizing for Direct Installation — The 17.5-25 wheel sizing matches the original mounting configuration on compatible GTH machines, so the wheel mounts up without adaptation or modification.
- Confirmed Fitment for GTH Telehandlers — Verified for the GTH-1256 AF, GTH-1256, and GTH-1544 — three of Genie's high-capacity telehandler models built for demanding lift and carry applications.
- Supports Load Stability Under Full Capacity — A correctly rated wheel maintains the structural integrity of the drive and load system; a cracked, deformed, or incorrect wheel can compromise traction and machine stability under load.
- Operational Safety on Demanding Terrain — Telehandlers operate under significant dynamic loads when traveling, lifting, and placing. Using the correct OEM-spec wheel supports safe, predictable machine behavior across the range of motion.
The wheel on a telehandler is a load-bearing structural component that carries the full weight of the machine, its counterweight, and the rated lifting load — all while transmitting drive force across rough or uneven terrain. Unlike a standard vehicle wheel, a telehandler wheel must withstand the combined stresses of traction, braking, and lateral load shift during boom extension. When a wheel is damaged, cracked, or out of spec, it can compromise tire seating, bead integrity, and overall machine stability, making prompt replacement with the correct part critical to safe, continued operation.
