2pcs 12x16.5 Heavy-Duty 12-Ply Directional SKS Skid Steer Loader Tires

Dominate high-wear job sites with the SKS-1 12x16.5 12-Ply Heavy-Duty Directional Skid Steer Loader Tire Set. Purpose-built for demanding construction and industrial environments, featuring an aggressive directional block lug pattern, a 17mm deep tread depth, extra-durable rubber compound, and reinforced bead armor supporting up to 6,316 lbs max load per tire.

• 12-Ply Rated Heavy-Duty Industrial Armor:
  Built with a dense 12PR reinforced carcass engineered to withstand extreme vertical payloads, eliminate sidewall deflection under heavy bucket compression, and resist severe rock cuts and punctures.
• Directional Deep 17mm Lugs & Self-Cleaning Traction:
  Features a 17mm (0.67 in) deep directional block lug design with angled shoulder knobs. The directional geometry actively channels away mud, slush, and loose gravel, maximizing forward push traction and machine stability in harsh terrain.
• Reinforced Shoulder & Anti-Irregular Wear Architecture:
  Specially engineered with extra rubber layers and optimized groove placement to ensure even ground pressure distribution. Prevents uneven tread scrub, extends operational tire lifespan, and significantly lowers equipment downtime.
• Enhanced Bead Package & Rim Security:
  Upgraded heavy-duty bead sealing structure fits tight to the rim, eliminating the risk of tire slippage on the wheel during high-torque pivots, rapid directional changes, and swift operation.
• Puncture-Resistant Tread Compound:
  Formulated with high-grade wear-resistant polymers that defend against sharp rebar, crushed concrete, and harsh job-site debris.
• Package Contents: 2-Pack 12x16.5 Industrial Skid Steer Tires. Rims/Wheels are NOT included.

Important Job-Site & Operating Guidelines:
• Directional Mounting Notice: SKS-1 is a directional tire. When mounting onto rims, ensure the sidewall directional rotation arrows point in the forward driving direction of your equipment for maximum self-cleaning and traction.
• Inflation Management: Check cold inflation pressure regularly and maintain near 80 PSI (550 kPa) under full payload conditions to prevent bead slippage and guarantee uniform tread wear.
• Fitment Verification: Please verify your machine’s rim width, wheel well clearance, and bolt pattern prior to mounting.
• Off-Highway Industrial Use Only: Designated strictly for industrial skid steer loaders, compact wheel loaders, and site equipment (NHS - Not for Highway Service).
